LEGAL MARKET DIAGNOSTICS: GUATEMALA'S INVISIBLE RISK LAYER
The Guatemalan legal system is a legacy artifact trying to absorb 21st-century disputes:
- Penal typification is analog; risk exposure is digital.
- Judges lack the cognitive toolkit to differentiate tax evasion from decentralized finance structuring.
- Crypto holdings are increasingly misinterpreted as concealment rather than asset allocation.
- Traditional fiduciary law remains static, while the market demands algorithmic triggers, smart contract compliance, and hybrid fiduciary shields.
Guatemala Penal, S.A. recognizes this gap and positions itself as the missing link between institutional legality and capital liquidity in hostile jurisdictions.
