Description

Private sector financial development is essential to the promotion of successful and sustainable economies in low and middle-income countries around the world. Sound and efficient financial markets can ensure that resources are allocated where they are most productive, assisting job creation and spurring economic growth.

The FIG's Latin America and the Caribbean team (FIG LAC) is based across the LAC region with main hubs and locations in Mexico, Colombia, Brazil, Argentina and Panama. The team members work on both new business development and processing, and portfolio management across the region.

The FIG LAC team is seeking to hire an Investment Officer based in México City, México or Panama City, Panama, to help grow and develop business and manage select investment portfolio clients mainly in the respective hub, potentially extending across the LAC region.
