About

Corficolombiana’s legal function, comprised of 13 employees and led by Marcela Acuña Ramirez, has gained a formidable reputation nationwide for its expertise in participating in the financing and supporting “Fourth Generation” (4G) toll road projects in Colombia. The team’s speed and efficiency in structuring the legal aspects of the tenders required to obtain the allocation of 4G toll road projects from Agencia Nacional de Infraestructura (ANI) has been particularly impressive, as well as its ease in closing project financing necessary for the facilitation of said projects. The unit’s strength is also reflected by growing responsibility given to the team, which now includes a greater range of issues related not only to the company’s investment affiliates pertaining to the financial services sector, but also subsidiaries that are part of the real economic sector, which have become more important to the company’s strategy in recent years. ‘Our legal team consists of a diverse group of lawyers who are very capable of contributing to the achievement of the company’s goals based on their level of knowledge and expertise. Teamwork and spirit of cooperation are one of the main characteristics of our legal team, which fosters a respectful and pleasant work environment’, says Sharon Diazgranados, coordinator of legal affairs at Corficolombiana.
