San Salvador, March 28, 2025

CNAD Director César Córdova, along with Director Miguel Serafín, participated with the Supreme Court of Justice in the inauguration of the course “Fundamentals of Investigation, Freezing, and Forfeiture of Digital Assets”, led by the CSJ and CNJ.

The event was attended by Constitutional Chamber Justice and Coordinator of the Anti-Money Laundering and Asset Prevention Commission, Héctor Nahun Martínez, accompanied by Justice Ramón Iván García from the same chamber. Also present were Claudia María Orozco and Mayra Gabriela López, Director and Deputy Director, respectively, of the Directorate for the Prevention of Money Laundering, Terrorist Financing, and Anti-Corruption.

The purpose of this course, in the words of the President of the Supreme Court of Justice (CSJ), Dr. Henry Alexander Mejía, is:
“This training process is our response to the demands of modern society—not only to understand the digital asset market but also to take all precautionary measures to prevent any criminal offenses and organized crime activities in which these assets could be used, ensuring that they serve their intended purpose.”

It is important to highlight the significant progress that this type of training represents, as it aims to support in great detail the new digital economy models in El Salvador. Our country has become the second in the world, after Switzerland, to implement regulatory laws for digital assets.

César Alejandro Córdova emphasized:
“I extend my recognition to the Court. This morning reaffirms the commitment to continuous updating and specialized training for those who administer justice in our country.”

Through such initiatives, El Salvador seeks to strengthen its position in the region by promoting a secure, transparent, and efficient digital asset ecosystem.
