Along with the impressive growth of this sector in Mexico and due to its innovative essence, the regulatory authorities have found necessary to adapt the Mexican legal framework to promote financial inclusion and legal certainty both for Fintech companies and their users.

In response to this significant commercial and legal disruption, these series of articles addresses the current regulation of the Fintech industry in Mexico, specifically: the creation of a Financial Technology Institution, the legal treatment of virtual assets, the monitoring and surveillance of crypto-assets and their relationship with electronic commerce; as well as the privacy and data protection inherent to the operations in the sector. We hope it will be of interest to the reader.
