CMF to file charges against two applications offering loans for alleged extortion and usury

September 4, 2026 - The Financial Market Commission (CMF) alerts the public about two applications offering loans that are not supervised by the CMF. They employ extortion techniques and charge predatory amounts when collecting these loans.

The CMF filed a criminal complaint before the Public Prosecutor's Office against any parties responsible for the following applications, which are available for download from Google Play and other websites:

1. APP "PLAZA CRÉDITO"
2. APP "CONFI CRÉDITO"

The CMF also reminds the public about the Citizen Alerts Page for investors, policyholders, and banking customers available on its website. Interested parties can verify here whether an entity or person offering financial products or services is supervised by the CMF; check alerts issued by the CMF and other foreign regulators on unregulated entities or activities; and other important advice for the protection of investors, policyholders, and financial clients.
