Recognizing the transformative impact of a gift, Bancamiga will be collecting toys at 48 branches nationwide this Saturday from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm, in celebration of Children’s Day. A stuffed animal, a toy car, a doll, a ball, or a children’s wellness kit (new or in perfect condition) will represent a heartfelt embrace from our customers to the affected communities.

Children’s Day is much more than a date on the calendar; it’s the perfect opportunity to remind children how precious and loved they are. This year, the celebration takes on an even deeper meaning following the events of June 24th.

Bancamiga employees will receive these donations this Saturday to distribute them on Sunday in La Guaira. The bank invites citizens to visit branches with their children to enjoy a special day, where the little ones will also receive a Kids Card as a gift, ideal for taking their first steps in the financial world with awareness and education.

An unwavering commitment

The toy distribution is part of the meticulous contingency plan that Bancamiga initiated from the first day of the emergency to support the affected areas. This strategy includes the creation of a special fund with preferential rates, grace periods, and simplified procedures for individuals, businesses, and SMEs.

The plan also includes receiving funds from abroad without fees, restructuring loan portfolios, directly distributing drinking water, milk, mattresses, and non-perishable food items, along with waiving point-of-sale fees and providing free replacement of the Bancamiga Mastercard Debit Card.

At Bancamiga, every employee is convinced that rebuilding the future begins by protecting children’s present. The bank’s statement concludes with an invitation: Come to any of our branches this Saturday, bring a toy, and give the gift of a smile. We’ll be waiting for you!

Point-of-sale operations in businesses in La Guaira, Venezuela, will be exempt from paying commissions for 90 days, according to the Venezuelan Banking Association (Asobanca).

In a press release, the association indicated: “The majority of private banks in the country have decided to exempt businesses located in the State of La Guaira, for a period of ninety (90) days, the commissions associated with operations carried out through Points of Sale (POS), with the aim of easing the operational burden and promoting local economic reactivation.”

Some 12,300 private banking points of sale operate in the port state of Venezuela, which represents about 40 % processing commercial transactions. “This figure shows the magnitude of the impact on commercial infrastructure – where businesses suffered severe damage, remain inaccessible or are in the process of reopening – and establishes the great challenge for the coming days and months: ensuring that this percentage increases progressively as the area advances in its recovery and stabilization.”

Asobanca will accompany the commercial reactivation process in the state, together with private banking in order to evaluate the particular situation of each business.

With an accurate diagnosis, it will be possible to review current credit conditions, “payment facilities and support schemes adapted to the real needs of each establishment.”

• Banco del Libro: Aware of the emotional impact, we have joined this renowned institution to implement a support program through storytelling. This initiative aims to provide educational and engaging tools to help children process trauma and find emotional relief amidst the situation.

Efficient and constant support

Emergency response requires an efficient and constant support network. We appreciate the collaboration of key partners who facilitate the operational capacity and well-being of communities and volunteers:

The state of La Guaira, a Special Economic Zone (EEZ) in the country, exported more than 100 tons of fish to Europe this month, according to its sole authority, Marcos Meléndez.

The official indicated that this figure represents positive progress for the productive sector, in addition to strengthening international investment and the territorial development plan.

Meléndez highlighted that a total of 112 tons of fish products, primarily octopus, were exported from La Guaira state to European markets, “as part of the boost to the non-oil economy being developed in the Special Economic Zone (SEZ) of the state.”

The shipment was processed at a fish processing plant located in the Venezuelan coastal state, “one of the strategic projects linked to food sovereignty and with an export focus. The specific destinations are being kept confidential to protect international trade agreements and investors.”

The sole authority of the SEZ explained that the fish export is part of a set of nine development projects aimed at strengthening national production, attracting foreign investment, and generating foreign exchange.

“Among these initiatives, the construction of the wheat mill in Catia La Mar also stands out, as well as the tourism projects under development, such as the Camurimar and Bahía Sunset hotels in the Caraballeda parish, which aim to enhance the state’s recreational and economic profile,” Meléndez noted.

Venezuela is experiencing tense moments after several explosions occurred at various military targets early Saturday morning, January 3, and President Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, were captured.

According to local and international media, in a statement from the White House, US President Donald Trump confirmed an attack on the Mountain Barracks, the Port of La Guaira, La Carlota Airport, and Fort Tiuna, and the subsequent extraction of Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores.

A State of External Disturbance was declared throughout the country, according to a message disseminated via Telegram by Foreign Minister Yván Gil, who stated: “The Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela rejects, repudiates, and denounces before the international community the extremely serious military aggression perpetrated by the current government of the United States of America.”

For her part, Vice President Delcy Rodríguez “confirmed at 6:00 a.m. this Saturday, January 3, that Nicolás Maduro and Cilia Flores were captured by US forces” and demanded that the Trump administration provide proof of life for both of them.

Meanwhile, U.S. Attorney General Pamela Bondi announced early this morning that Maduro and his wife “have been indicted in the Southern District of New York on charges of narco-terrorism conspiracy, conspiracy to import cocaine, possession of machine guns and destructive devices, and conspiracy to possess machine guns and destructive devices against the United States.”

The creation of the Special Economic Zone (ZEE in Spanish) in the Venezuelan state of La Guaira, promoted by President Nicolás Maduro, has attracted investment and created more than 4,000 jobs.

Governor José Alejandro Terán emphasized this last week in an interview with the state television channel, adding that “this initiative seeks to generate incentives for the private sector to promote investment in the country.”

He detailed that an “exceptional legal framework has been established that provides the necessary incentive to invest in the region,” including projects under development through partnerships with other nations, such as “a fully operational sunflower oil processing plant, a fish processing plant, and a toy factory with an initial capacity of approximately 50,000 toys per month.”

Terán also mentioned agreements already signed with two factories: one for fiber optics and another for yarns and fabrics. “In that context,” he announced, “the largest wheat processing plant in Latin America will be inaugurated soon.”

Through the “La Guaira Emprende Plan,” regional authorities have activated “the commercial and tourism sector, for the enjoyment of both residents and visitors.”
