In the midst of a political climate marked by judicial investigations into the management of public funds during Kirchner's administrations, the Federal Justice ordered a measure with a strong impact: the lifting of bank and stock market secrecy by the mayor of Quilmes, Mayra Mendoza, together with other people linked to her environment. The measure stems from an official document issued by the Central Bank of the Argentine Republic, dated February 11, 2026, under the reference “REQUEST FOR INFORMATION - URGENT”, addressed to financial institutions, exchange operators, banks and exchange agencies, non-financial companies that issue credit and purchase cards, and payment service providers that offer payment accounts
.The agency reported that the request responds to Office (OF) No. 63083/2026, issued by the Federal Court of First Instance of Quilmes, within the framework of the case labeled: “N.N. S/INVESTIGATION OF CRIME (Dte. Castro Bergamin, Nahuel Imanol, representative of the Municipality of Quilmes)”, corresponding to File No. FLP 16542/2022. The judicial document was sent via institutional email dinco@prefecturanaval.gov.ar, belonging to the Argentine Naval Prefecture, the body involved in the investigation. According to the official text, the court ordered “the lifting of bank and stock market secrecy, as well as legal and contractual confidentiality commitments with respect to the Central Bank of the Argentine Republic and the National Securities Commission
.”
The measure is based on the provisions of article 39, paragraph “a”, of Law 21.526 on Financial Institutions, a regulation that enables access to financial information when there is an ongoing judicial investigation.
According to the letter, the provision covers several individuals linked to the cause, including:Sebastián Roberto Raspa, CUIT No. 20-... Martín Bordalejo, CUIT No. 20-...
