“Jaime’s vision, values and leadership are responsible for ensuring impressive results at Bladex,” said John Byrne, Managing Director of Boyden Santiago. “His stewardship of Bladex, combined with his understanding of growth opportunities in Latin America and the global financial sector are impressive.”
