About

Sharon Diazgranados, legal affairs coordinator at Corporación financiera Colombiana (Corficolombiana), a Colombian private equity firm, is widely praised for her thoroughness. ‘She will undertake each and every assignment with the objective of fully understanding each and every relevant legal concept, regardless of how complex. She pushes her advisors to deliver the best work possible’, according to one source. A young and ambitious lawyer, Diazgranados has quickly moved up the career ladder. Starting out at the small Bogotá-based law firm Ustáriz & Abogados in 2008, Diazgranados was soon hired by Colombia’s largest merchant bank Corficolombiana as a staff attorney. Diazgranados’ contribution to the bank was quickly recognised, leading to her promotion to her current position of coordinator of legal affairs. Supporting the bank across the full spectrum of its portfolio of services, Diazgranados’ impressive legal expertise allows for swift execution of complex financings, reorganisations and M&A transactions.
