About

Gustavo Sáchica oversees all legal work related to MetLife’s 400,000 policy holders in Colombia. Sáchica joined MetLife in 2015, two years after the global insurer had entered the Colombian market with the acquisition of ALICO (American Life Insurance Company). In addition to addressing technical questions arising from the claims of policyholders, Sáchica is responsible for liaising with the Colombian financial regulator, Superintendencia Financiera de Colombia (SFC), advising business units across the company on potential regulatory and compliance issues and ensuring its products are saleable in the Colombian market. A specialist in insurance law, Sáchica began his career at the Colombian arm of Australian-headquartered global insurer QBE, where he was named as both a “future leader” in its Leadership Academy Programme and among the company’s top 10 emerging markets leaders.
