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, bringing together 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, announced by NOTICIAS NEWSWIRE, will address high-impact issues 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: 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.
Beyond content sessions, 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 collaboration. “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 the Puerto Rico International Insurers Association (PRIIA).
Eduardo Colón, president of the Puerto Rico International Banks Association (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.” The event also offers visibility and networking opportunities for sponsors seeking to reach a specialized financial audience.

This gathering matters because it underscores Puerto Rico's growing significance as a financial center, especially as the industry confronts rapid technological and regulatory changes. The discussions on artificial intelligence, digital assets, and financial crime will likely shape strategies for institutions operating across the Americas and the Caribbean, influencing how they manage risk, comply with regulations, and innovate. For professionals and businesses in the financial sector, the forum provides a critical opportunity to gain insights, forge partnerships, and stay ahead of emerging trends that could impact operations and competitiveness. As global financial systems evolve, events like this help set the tone for regional cooperation and regulatory alignment, making it essential for stakeholders to follow the outcomes.
