The Puerto Rico Financial Services Forum will return to the Sheraton Puerto Rico Resort & Casino on November 2 and 3, 2026, for its sixth edition, gathering executives, regulators, and specialists from Puerto Rico, the United States, Latin America, and the Caribbean to discuss the changes redefining the financial industry. The event, organized by the Puerto Rico International Insurers Association (PRIIA) and the Puerto Rico International Banks Association (PRIBA), will focus on high-impact topics for banking and insurance, including artificial intelligence, compliance, financial crime, fintech, correspondent banking, captive insurance, AML and sanctions, digital assets, and regulation.
The agenda features prominent public and private sector figures such as Mónica Rodríguez Villa, Esq., commissioner of Financial Institutions of Puerto Rico; Suzette Del Valle Lecároz, Esq., commissioner of Insurance of Puerto Rico; Zachary Kessler from the U.S. Department of the Treasury; Angelo Colombo, CEO of AIG for Latin America and the Caribbean; and Jeff Radke, CEO and co-founder of Accelerant. Investigative journalist Ignacio Gomez, known for his work on corruption and financial crimes, will also participate. The forum aims to strengthen connections among leaders in banking, insurance, technology, law firms, consulting, compliance, and regulation, creating a space for idea exchange, business development, and new collaboration opportunities.
“More than a conference, the Puerto Rico Financial Services Forum has established itself as a high-level space where decision-makers and industry leaders connect, exchange ideas, and explore new opportunities for collaboration and growth,” said Hugo Cordova, president of PRIIA. Eduardo Colón, president of PRIBA, added, “The Puerto Rico Financial Services Forum continues to strengthen Puerto Rico's position as a center for international banks and insurers, while creating a platform to discuss innovation, regulation, and the future of the financial industry.”
For readers and industry stakeholders, the forum signals Puerto Rico’s ongoing efforts to position itself as a hub for international finance. The presence of top regulators and executives suggests that discussions could influence regulatory practices and business strategies across the region. As financial technology and compliance challenges evolve, the forum provides a venue for decision-makers to align on best practices, potentially impacting how banks and insurers operate in Latin America and the Caribbean. The event also offers visibility and networking opportunities for sponsors and organizations seeking to connect with a specialized financial audience.
