CNBV Pulls CAME’s Sofipo License, Triggering Deposit Insurance Payouts

Most depositors will be reimbursed through Prosofipo under a 180‑day claim process with payments issued after validation.

Overview

  • The CNBV revoked CAME’s authorization on September 19 and published the order on September 22, placing the entity into dissolution and liquidation.
  • Prosofipo will reimburse up to 25,000 UDIs per person (about 213,000–219,000 pesos as of September 19), covering 169,564 depositors, or roughly 99.5% of accounts.
  • About 850 depositors hold balances above the insured cap and must pursue any excess through the liquidation process, with no guarantee of full recovery.
  • Eligible customers have 180 days to file claims via fondodeproteccion.mx or at the Iztapalapa office; once validated, payments are to be made within up to 80 days, following internal review timelines.
  • Authorities state payouts use sector funds rather than public money, and CAME borrowers are instructed to continue loan repayments as depositor protests and collective legal actions proceed.
