II Spotlight - 2021 Latin America Executive Team

29th July 2021 - In this week's II SPOTLIGHT Ursula Kizy, II Research Director, interviews Latin America Executive Team winner, André Martins, CFA, Head of Investor Relations at XP Inc. André discusses the company culture which enables XP to excel in Brazil’s dynamic financial industry - a unique working environment that places the client at the center of every decision, propelling the company to “dream big,” “have an open mind,” and embrace “an entrepreneurial spirit.” The lack of hierarchical barriers allows everyone to “act as owners” and think ambitiously. “The Brazilian financial market is very concentrated…consumers are clearly eager for better products and services…so that’s the opportunity that exists for disrupters such as ourselves.” André comments, “The value of [Institutional Investor’s] services is remarkable. You have an impressive reach both on the buy-side and sell-side, and we know that your process is thorough and diligent. It’s very rewarding to know that the investment community values our work and our company.”
