Reason
Durante el 2024 Ecuador trabajó en un protocolo de gestión de riesgo que permitió levantar información sobre las necesidades del país en este ámbito. En mayo de 2025, Ecuador implementó el Sistema Palantir en la aduana, plataforma tecnológica avanzada de análisis de datos e inteligencia artificial, para modernizar el control aduanero, combatir el contrabando y prevenir la defraudación fiscal. Esta herramienta, conocida como Palantir Foundry, se basa en la gestión de riesgo, permitiendo a la aduana identificar irregularidades en tiempo real y actuar con mayor precisión sin detener el flujo comercial legítimo. Sin perjuicio de ello, Ecuador está revisando su implementación y mejoras adicionales.

Assistance required for implementation Cooperation for training and technical assistance with a view to implementing systems for the exchange of information between countries on levels of risk. Better practices and new procedures are needed to deal with high- and low-risk goods.
A risk management assessment is required, which takes into account all the parameters of the bodies involved in trade in goods.
Cooperation is also requested to ensure the exchange of information (creation of statistical models, forecasts and better risk management practices) between other customs offices and control bodies.
