Complete the structured form. Your information goes directly to MAJLEX and a firm lawyer reviews your case and replies with the corresponding assessment, based on Ecuador's Organic Law on the Prevention of Money Laundering, its Regulation and the Comprehensive Organic Criminal Code.
You don't need to be a lawyer to use this tool. Here we explain, without jargon, why these two topics can affect your company.
El lavado de activos is the process of making money from illegal activities appear "clean". Ecuadorian law requires certain companies to have controls to prevent their business from being used, unknowingly, for that purpose.
Since 2024–2025, the law broadened who is required to comply with these controls. It is no longer only banks: fintech platforms, crypto exchanges, real-estate firms, third-party fund managers, and even lawyers and accountants in certain cases may also be covered.
Why does it matter to you? If your company qualifies as a "reporting entity" and fails to comply, it may face significant financial penalties from the supervisory bodies.
In Ecuador, not only individuals can face criminal prosecution: the company itself (as a legal entity) can be prosecuted and sanctioned, independently of its owners or employees, for offenses such as money laundering, corruption, bribery or tax fraud.
Sanctions may include fines, temporary closure of the business and, in extreme cases, the dissolution of the company.
Why does it matter to you? The law allows that liability to be reduced or eliminated if the company proves it had a real good-practices program (code of ethics, whistleblowing channel, audits) before the problem occurred — not after.
In short: if your company handles third-party money or assets, operates in fintech/crypto, or you simply want to know whether you are protected against an investigation, choose one of the two tools below. You don't need legal knowledge — the form guides you step by step and a MAJLEX lawyer reviews your case afterwards.
