Description

Private sector financial development is essential to the promotion of successful and sustainable economies in low and middle-income countries around the world.

Sound and efficient financial markets can ensure that resources are allocated where they are most productive, assisting job creation and spurring economic growth.

IFC's goal is to prioritize investment in the financial sector because it promotes development in all other sectors.

FIG engages in a wide range of sub-sectors including Microfinance, SME, Gender, Climate, Insurance, Capital Markets, Housing, Distressed Assets, and other areas.

The FIG's Latin America and the Caribbean team (FIG LAC) is based across the LAC region with main hubs and locations in Mexico, Argentina, Colombia, and Sao Paulo.

The team members work on both new business development and processing, and portfolio management across the region.

The FIG LAC team is seeking to hire an (Associate) Investment Officer based in Sao Paulo, Brazil, to help grow and develop business and manage select investment portfolio clients mainly in the respective hub, potentially extending across the LAC region.
