Section 109 of the PROMESA law stipulates that the members of the Oversight Board that have control over Puerto Rico's finances are obligated to submit financial reports that were published this week on the body's official web page. However, without an Ethics Official, the first pages of each form were left blank because they are missing the signature that certifies that 'the interests are not substantial' to influence the services of the board. This resulted in various members not complying by filling the designated spaces with the annual salary they make for the directive position each constituent occupies.

For the lawyer Rolando Emmanuelli Jiménez, author of the book PROMESA, they have publish incomplete reports. 'They practically don't have the information on the professional history of Elías Sánchez. If you look more closely, there are many spaces of the sections that were left blank and that shows that ‘la Junta' (the Oversight Board) submited information that is not compliant with their own regulations. The law says that it is necessary that the Ethics Official evaluates the documents before making them public on the web, and if you look closely the signature of the member of the board is there, but not the Ethic's official's signature', he discussed in a telephone interview with NotiCel.

The Oversight Board amended PROMESA to include a member that ensures there is no conflict of interest and that the dispositions established by the United States Congress are met with.

Governor Ricardo Rossello's representative before the Oversight Board, Elías Sánchez, was one of the few members that published his report without detailing how much he makes from his two jobs – CEO of Veritas Consulting in Toa Baja and signature contractor for the lawyers firm Wolf Popper in San Juan-. In the information that was submitted, he declared that the income from WPG International, Globalize LLC, an account from Banco Popular and another savings account in Chanse Checking, but did not specify quantities, nor declared if he had some sort of retirement plan – contrary to every other member --. The member in virtue of the Junta had two student loans from Navient and Neinet. The first was for a 10-year term since 2003; the second was for a 12-year term since 2007. In addition, he possesses two rotary funds from American Express and Chase Visa.

'The place where the responsibility with the debt is mentioned there are no quantities. With the professional relationships he has had with the New Progressive Party (NPP), Elías has always been involved in politics and has always had a contract, he submitted, I think, just two entities', denounced Emmanuelli Jiménez.

The president of the assembly, José B. Carrión III, did not detail his salary either as an HUB International CLC, Inc. executive nor as a member of the GM Security Board, even though he has nine retirement plans. He has many income sources, but does not reveal their value or an approximate sum.

Another member that failed to specify the total sum of his compensations was Carlos García, whom disclosed an extensive form with more than 33 sections filled in the 'Other incomes and retirement plan' section. He pointed out that as expresident of the Government Development Bank of Puerto Rico (BGF, by its Spanish initials), his last payment was made last march, and his last active services were transferred in October. García sold four investment funds denominated: 'First Puerto Rico Target Maturity Income Opportunities Fund' last year and three of them with values that go over 15, 000 dollars, even though he receives less than 201 dollars per each one.

García is a resident in the Caribbean Financial Group, Inc. and Caribbean Financial Group Holdings, L.P., located in Guaynabo. The member is also the executive director of BayBoston Managers LLC; associate and associate manager in BayBoston Capital L.P.; serves as a director in Professional Holding Corp. and Professional Bank; Radius Bancorp and Radius Bank; and Hyde Square Task Force; and other companies. The only income number is from the Santander Bank, N.A., made last March for a sum of $5,736.

García is also in the possession of interests in U.S. bank accounts and U.S brokerage account. Among his territories, he has a property in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. Also owns two credit lines, one in Wellesley Bank and another in Eastern Bank, both from last year.

David Skeel, a professor in the University of Pennsylvania Law School since 1999 and a member of the Judicial Conference Advisory Committee on Bankruptcy Rules; of the board of God's World Publications; and editor of the Bloomberg Bureau of National Affairs did not detail his salary as an academic either. But he has received more than $68, 533 as a guest professor, honorary member and for his publications. Also, Skeel has a retirement plan with the University and his wife with the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts Retirement Plan.
