Explanation:
This seems to me to be a case of poor sentence construction in the source, which is leading to confusion in the meaning. The meaning would be more clear if the last part of the sentence were placed closer to the part it references.
The regulatory models of Chile, Columbia and Peru are examples, ***the attributes of the various aspects of which*** may be replicated and adapted to the specifics of each scope.
