ANBIMA is once again part of the board of directors of FIAFIN (Ibero-American Federation of Investment Funds). The decision was made during the federation’s general assembly held on April 9.

At the first meeting of the new board, our CEO José Carlos Doherty was elected vice president of the organization for a two-year term. Tatiana Itikawa, our chief of Market Practice and Business Development, was appointed alternate board member. Argentine representative Valentín Galardi remains president.

FIAFIN brings together fund industry associations from 13 Ibero-American countries: Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Spain, Mexico, Panama, Peru, Portugal, the Dominican Republic, and Uruguay.

“FIAFIN plays a key role in fostering coordination among Ibero-American countries, which supports the development of the investment fund markets. The exchange of experiences, diversity of perspectives, and technical quality of its members make this forum particularly enriching,” Doherty said.

The federation’s mission is to promote cooperation among its members, drive the development and integration of fund markets in the region, and contribute to the advancement of best regulatory and operational practices. It also seeks to encourage financial education and highlight the role of investment funds as instruments for savings and long-term financing.

By rejoining FIAFIN's board, ANBIMA reinforces its commitment to international dialogue and to building a Brazilian market that is increasingly aligned with global trends and best practices.
