Portuguese term or phrase: sem prejuizo da tutela a que está sujeita

This refers to a securities regulator's ability to intervene in securities markets on behalf of the State independently, "sem prejuizo da tutela a que está sujeita", and/yet in compliance with the law and the court decisions which govern its deliberations.

I think this means something like without risk of losing the protection to which it is entitled, but I'm really not very sure.

Thanks. I wasn't able to determine that this was the unequivocal meaning, but it seemed to me that the other meanings I was considering were too strained and this one was fairly literal.

The regulating agency, notwithstanding the State custody to which it's subject, is independent enough to intervene in securities markets on behalf of the State, always independently. Its Officers have a mandate and cannot be removed from office before the end of their terms.

Notes to answerer

Asker: Thanks, I understand that "tutela" can mean custody and how it would pertain to the protection/custody of children, funds or missiles, but I don't understand how it fits the context of a the securities regulator's scope of activity.
