# SIC Sanctions

> Search every final fine Colombia's Superintendencia de Industria y Comercio has imposed for consumer-protection violations since 2013, by party, sector, case, resolution or date.

The Superintendencia de Industria y Comercio (SIC) investigates and fines companies and merchants that break Colombia's consumer-protection rules: usury, missing credit information, misleading advertising, warranty refusals, unfair terms. This is its list of the fines that are final (en firme), about 4,000 since 2013, from its consumer-protection investigations directorate: the case, the resolution that imposed the fine, the date, the party fined, the amount, the conduct and the sector. Financing services, tourism, vehicles, retail and e-commerce lead it.

Search by the party's name, the sector, the case number, the resolution number or the date, or with free text over the party, the conduct and the sector.
