The Financial Superintendence of Colombia published a press release summarising remarks by Edgar Saad Mor, Director of Infrastructure Providers, highlighting financial education and the use of new technologies such as artificial intelligence as key elements of consumer and investor protection. The comments were made during a discussion on hybrid stock-market trading and decision-making held at Universidad Externado de Colombia as part of World Investor Week. The supervisor pointed to an existing policy to support technological innovation as a consumer-protection instrument across securities and financial markets, and framed supervision as needing to both foster and monitor technological developments, particularly as artificial intelligence advances. The remarks also stressed that e-trading systems should develop post-trade infrastructure to better manage and mitigate risks, and noted the authority’s role in convening public-private working groups aimed at advancing Colombia’s capital markets.
