Abstract

This article addresses weaknesses in management control and regulatory compliance at a Chilean general fund manager, whose low organizational maturity and outsourcing of critical functions have increased operational risk. The objective of this research is to design a control panel to improve risk management and strengthen regulatory compliance in key processes. A qualitative approach is adopted through document analysis, semi-structured interviews, and questionnaires administered to key stakeholders. The information gathered identified weaknesses in internal controls, delays in regulatory reporting, and a lack of tools to measure operational performance. The study is based on Agency Theory and Stakeholder Theory, as well as technical frameworks such as COSO and the Balanced Scorecard. The result is a control tool based on key performance indicators aimed at monitoring
the transaction recording process. This proposal facilitates supervision, improves operational efficiency, and helps reduce the risk of regulatory non-compliance. It is concluded that the dashboard is a viable mechanism for promoting transparency, effective control, and organizational accountability in regulated financial contexts.
