Paul Koch

Jose is an outstanding and highly experienced banker with regional experience in Latin America in commercial / retail banking and wealth management. His skill set to develop and structure business strategies aligned to local market conditions coupled with his practical approach to implementing and managing business issues makes him a valuable asset for organizations committed to enhancing their presence and results in markets in the region. I had the pleasure to work with him during some 18 years at ABN AMRO Bank.
