Zone Saver https://www.simulador.financredit.fin.ec/zone-saver/ https://www.simulador.financredit.fin.ec/zone-saver/#respond Thu, 19 Jan 2017 22:00:10 +0000 http://coopbank.dev/?p=50 The nearly four years that BlackRock completed in Colombia, a US firm specialized in investment management, have been sufficient to verify the evolution that the country’s capital market is experiencing, although its directives recognize that it still lacks more depth, diversity of instruments And greater financial education, especially to natural person investor.
Diego Mora, director of BlackRock Colombia, says that in order to achieve progress on these fronts, the country does not need sophisticated and obscure products, nor can it be left with too basic alternatives; So they work in simple options with which they can reach more people, a niche in which they see opportunities and investors every day more mature.

What has been the experience of the firm after four years in Colombia?

We see a capital market evolving positively, and that not only favors us as a company, but also benefits investors, especially natural people, who are increasingly interested in exploring new ways of investing their resources.

How do they measure that impact on company figures?

The local product we have is Icolcap (one of the referents of the Colombian Stock Exchange), which continues to consolidate as the largest fund of Colombian shares worldwide. Today it is slightly below the 900 million dollars, the total value of the portfolio. Now, what Colombians invest in our products abroad has also grown, to the point that today we handle about 8,000 million dollars, although most are from companies.

What has made that figure reach?

The confidence of institutional investors in the index; They are using it for both long and short term positions. But the important thing is that, little by little, natural people have been using it, although the country lacks much more financial education, so that people know what they are and what these tools are for.

For your future https://www.simulador.financredit.fin.ec/for-your-future/ https://www.simulador.financredit.fin.ec/for-your-future/#respond Thu, 19 Jan 2017 21:59:56 +0000 http://coopbank.dev/?p=48 How do they get a Colombian natural person to put their resources in something they do not know well?

I think much of this goes through financial education, and there is still a lot to go into it here. But I feel that there is a lot of natural person who invests in individual actions. Now, the important thing is to know if that is the best option for a person who is starting their investments. If I am an individual who does not have time to be monitoring stock prices, it is much more efficient to be in alternatives that diversify their risk.

What comes to BlackRock in the Colombian market?

This year we entered into an alliance with Bancolombia and designed a product to invest in international stocks; That is our bet, innovation and incorporation of investment instruments, create options. This Bancolombia alternative is concentrated in few countries. It has been an experiment with good acceptance among the bank’s customers. I feel that at the moment we are breaking that inertia that there are no new products because there is no demand. We remain very committed to the country by bringing investment instruments that help the development of the capital market.
