Ana Catarina Loureiro Returns to Credibom to Lead Legal and Compliance Area

Jornal Económico14 September 2026 at 21:29

Ana Catarina Loureiro was appointed head of Legal and Compliance at Banco Credibom, returning to the institution where she had previously worked between 2015 and 2019. She had been leading the Compliance area at Santander Consumer Portugal since October 2019, where she oversaw regulatory matters, anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing prevention, product governance, internal control, and data protection.

With over two decades of experience in Compliance and Risk areas, Ana Catarina Loureiro holds a degree in Finance from ISCTE and has several postgraduate degrees, including in Financial Markets, Banking Law, and, most recently, in Compliance for Corruption Prevention.

The new head of Legal and Compliance will lead an area that Credibom intends to strengthen, with the objective of consolidating legal advisory, compliance culture, and regulatory risk management, following the evolution of applicable rules in the banking and insurance sectors.

Banco Credibom is wholly owned by the French group Crédit Agricole, is specialized in consumer credit and automotive financing in Portugal, has been present in the Portuguese market for over 30 years, and has more than 800 partners in the automotive and home retail sectors.

Why this matters

This appointment is relevant for professionals in the banking and financial sector in Portugal, as it reflects the trend of strengthening Compliance areas at credit institutions, especially in a context of greater regulatory rigor. Loureiro's return to Credibom and the emphasis on business proximity indicate that the institution's clients and partners can expect more robust compliance management and protection of their interests.

In testing phase, BRT and VLT begin accepting cards in Rio de Janeiro; credit has a fee

The Gentileza Terminal, in the Central Region of Rio de Janeiro, began testing the payment of BRT and VLT fares with credit and debit cards directly at the turnstiles. The City Hall regulated the measure this Monday, defining rules for the future expansion of the service. On debit, the passenger pays the normal fare value; on credit, there is an additional charge of up to 30 cents per trip to cover operational costs. CBN reached out to the City Hall to clarify whether this charge conflicts with a 2022 municipal law that determines that the fare value with card must correspond to the current price.

"There are farmers who are taking their tractors to Spain to fill up with regular diesel. We cannot live in a country like this"

Portuguese farmers are crossing the border with tractors to buy regular diesel in Spain, because agricultural diesel in Portugal is more expensive than regular diesel in the neighboring country. Pedro Frazão, a farmer heard by CNN Portugal, criticizes the situation, stating that "we cannot live in a country like this" and defends that the State should be on people's side.
