Passionate about the intersection between finance, sustainability and innovation. I am the Chief Investment Officer (CIO) of IDB Invest (IDB Group) as well as a member of the senior management team. With almost 25 years of experience in international finance, I have held several management positions in commercial and investment banks in London, Madrid and New York, with a focus on Latin America and the Caribbean. I launched the first sustainability program for the financial sector in the region (beyondBanking: banking on global sustainability); I am a YPO, a First Mover Aspen Fellow; and I was named one of the 50 most influential women in Latin America by Latin Trade magazine.
