Martha Patricia Espinosa Quimper has been in charge of the legal and compliance department at Compass Group, a leading fund manager in Peru, since 2016. Over this period she has focused her efforts on developing an effective operating system that contributes to integral risk management within the business. ‘By virtue of this and with my team, we implemented the manual of integral risk management, a document that has the purpose of integrating and improving the design and execution of processes, preventing fraud and enhancing the integrity of internal controls in the function to the size of the organisation and the complexity of the operations it performs,’ Espinosa explains. ‘The intention of our team has been not only to focus on maximising the performance of our institutional clients, but also on creating the maximum benefit to the final customers’. A skilled negotiator, in 2016 Espinosa impressed with her contribution to the signing of a trust agreement for debt of roughly $28m. The same year, she took charge of the negotiations corresponding to the sale of a property and land belonging to a real estate fund managed by Compass Group. The property, Centro Empresarial Miracorp, was sold for approximately $47m, with the land subsequently sold for $20m. In a highly impressive 2017, Espinosa contributed to the capital increase of a credit fund, which went from having $10m to $40m committed.
