The Puerto Rico Financial Services Forum has opened registration for its sixth edition, scheduled for November 2–3, 2026, at the Sheraton Puerto Rico Convention Center in San Juan. Recognized as a premier Caribbean gathering for international banking and insurance, the event will bring together senior executives, regulators, institutional investors, insurers, international banks, compliance leaders, legal experts, and government officials from Puerto Rico, the United States, Latin America, and the Caribbean.
The 2026 program expands its international reach with discussions on evolving challenges and opportunities shaping financial services. Key topics include artificial intelligence in insurance and financial crime compliance, fintech and Banking-as-a-Service, correspondent banking, captive insurance, AML and sanctions, digital assets, regulatory and law enforcement priorities, and investment strategies. This year's speaker lineup features Mónica Rodríguez, Commissioner of Financial Institutions; Suzette del Valle, Commissioner of Insurance of Puerto Rico; Angelo Colombo of AIG; David White of Morgan White Group; Jeff Radke of Accelerant; Zahira Rodríguez Gonzalvo of Popular; Scott Kosnoff of Faegre Drinker Biddle & Reath LLP; Osho Jha of Arbol Inc.; and many other industry leaders.
The forum also includes sessions on digital assets, financial crime, and enforcement with experts such as James Lee of Chainalysis, Roderick Schwarz of CSMB, Dustin Palmer of Anchorage Digital Bank, Dennis Lormel of DML Associates, and Sonia Torres of DLA Piper. The keynote will be delivered by Ignacio Gomez, an award-winning investigative journalist known for exposing corruption and financial crime across borders.
The event's significance lies in its role as a platform for high-level networking and dialogue, according to organizers. Hugo Cordova, President of the Puerto Rico International Insurers Association (PRIIA), stated, “More than a conference, the Puerto Rico Financial Services Forum has established itself as a high-level networking destination where decision-makers and influential leaders connect, exchange ideas, and explore new opportunities for collaboration and growth.” 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 hub for international banks and insurers, while creating a platform for dialogue around innovation, regulation, and the future of the financial industry.”
The forum provides sponsors with direct access to a specialized and influential audience, offering opportunities for brand visibility and strategic engagement. Organizers encourage financial institutions, insurance companies, law firms, accounting firms, technology providers, and related organizations to secure participation early as additional speakers and sessions will be announced in coming weeks.
