To promote greater financial integration of the Pacific Alliance, it was agreed upon to request from the leading actors in the industry of each member country, the preparation of a prioritized agenda with concrete actions, which serve as an input to supervisors to implement their work plan. The industry undertakes to include on this agenda, among other things, an analysis of the tax regimes in each of the four countries.

In line with the declaration of intentions on the establishment of the Passport of Collective Investment Vehicles of the Pacific Alliance, and with the aim of continuing with the development of the passport, the Supervisors commit themselves to set a working group among technical officers who will be in charge of identifying the practical and operational aspects affecting the marketing and distribution of said vehicles. This diagnosis will be considered in the elaboration of an improvement agenda.

In response to the concern of the industry, it was agreed to create an information platform which contains the essential elements, such as the applicable regulation, procedures and other relevant aspects, to facilitate access to the different markets and, thus promote the investment.

The next meeting will be held in Peru in 2019.
