About

Jario Arias began his legal career in Colombia’s Superintendence of Banks (now known as Superintendence of Finance) in 1996, working initially in contracts and later on in the legal opinion and litigation areas. In 2001 he joined Banco Agrario, quickly rising through the ranks of the bank until he was recruited by Fondo de Garatías de Instituciones Financieras, a provider of export guarantees, as a senior lawyer in 2003. After working there for three years, Arias worked as in independent advisor structuring the merger between his previous employer the Superintendence of Banks and the Superintendence of Securities. Arias then worked in a number of in-house roles over the course of several years, holding roles at energy companies Bolsa Mercantil de Colombia and Emgesa, and a further year at skincare company Episol, before assuming his current role of legal director at Isagen. His relatively short career at Isagen is filled with highly impressive achievements, primarily in the field of organisational change. These changes focus primarily on the creation of a system to report, redistribute and implement litigation processes and another system to standardise due diligence processes for labour matters.
