In this episode, we sit down with Jose M. Linares, Senior Executive Vice President and Global Head of Corporate & Investment Banking at Banco Santander. He provides an insider’s perspective on the shifting economic tides in Latin America. We explore the changes in Bolivia, the pro-business momentum in Argentina, and the challenges and opportunities for Brazil. From the energy transition and the mineral demands of AI to the massive infrastructure deficit, Jose explains why he is more optimistic about the region today than at any point since the 1990s.
