  "account": "Paraguay's Senate received a 31-page report from the central bank regarding Ueno Bank on Thursday, October 8. The report, sealed by the central bank, covers various aspects of Ueno Bank's operations and contains information that will be reviewed by the Senate's legal team. On Friday, October 9, the Senate will meet to discuss the report with the central bank president, Carlos Carvallo, and the superintendent of banks, Holger Insfrán. The report confirms that Ueno Bank exceeded the legal limit on loans to related parties, but it was corrected within the legal ten-day window, resulting in no sanctions. The report also reveals that Ueno Bank extended $42.5 million in loans, including overdrafts, to Mowi SA, a deal previously authorized by the central bank. Ueno Bank, a digital bank controlled by the Grupo Vázquez, absorbed the older Visión Banco through central bank approval. Ueno Bank holds approximately $850 million in funds from public bodies and the IPS social security institute. The report also covers other banks such as Sudameris, Itaú, and Atlas. Senator Celeste Amarilla criticized media for creating uncertainty about the financial system, while Senator Lilian Samaniego emphasized that a request for information is not an intervention or crisis. The BCP reported that the financial system is operating normally. The 31-page report remains unpublished, and its exact wording cannot be independently verified.",
