Banco Metropolitano Reiterates Activation of Foreign Currency Sales for Non-State Enterprises

The banking institution, through its official Facebook profile, reminded the public that these transactions will operate under the new official exchange market framework, strictly adhering to the conditions and procedures set forth by the Banco Central de Cuba.

This resolution stipulates that foreign currency sales will be conducted once per month, for a maximum amount calculated from the average income recorded in the fiscal account over the previous three months, multiplied by 50 percent and the current exchange rate of Segment III.

All operations will be executed through fully banked channels: Cuban pesos will be debited from the fiscal account, and the acquired foreign currency amounts will be credited to the non-state economic actor’s foreign currency account.

Requests must be processed via the Metropolitano en Línea remote banking service, accessed through the official website, following prior identity verification and account confirmation, in compliance with established control and traceability requirements.

The applicable exchange rates will be those set by the Banco Central de Cuba for Segment III, in effect on the day of the transaction, including authorized commercial margins.
