My Expertise in Arbitration:
Solutions Based on Justice and Knowledge
My practice as an arbitrator is based on more than two decades of experience in public policy, international trade, economic development and strategic consulting. Each area of specialization reflects my ability to resolve disputes with an ethical, fair and multidisciplinary approach, applying technical knowledge and a deep understanding of economic, social and regulatory dynamics. Below, I detail how my professional background prepares me to address conflicts in public procurement, foreign trade, investments, productive development and social and business management, offering resolutions that protect equity and promote competitiveness.
PUBLIC PROCUREMENT
Justice and Transparency in Contracts with the State
My experience in INDECOPI's Specialized Chamber for the Elimination of Bureaucratic Barriers has provided me with an exceptional understanding of how public contracts work and the regulations that govern them.
I have also worked for several years organizing the acquisition of goods and services under the multilateral regulations of the United Nations and preparing technical proposals and files for tenders with entities of the Peruvian State. Additionally, I have a specialization in Peruvian public contracts with recent legislation.
This work allows me to arbitrate disputes in public contracts with an approach that ensures legality, equity and efficiency, resolving conflicts related to tenders, contractual compliance and application of administrative regulations.
Relevance to Arbitration: My ability to interpret and apply public regulations, combined with my experience in resolving tensions between the State and the private sector, prepares me to arbitrate cases where fairness and transparency are essential to restore confidence in contractual processes.
FOREIGN TRADE AND FREE TRADE AGREEMENTS
Resolving Disputes with a Global Perspective
My career in the Vice Ministry of Foreign Trade and COMEXPERU has positioned me as an expert in international trade and trade negotiations.
At the Vice Ministry, I led Peru's strategy in the WTO Doha Round, strengthening our position on the global stage, while at COMEXPERU I defended the interests of the main business leaders before public entities such as different ministries, PROMPERU, SUNAT, among others, and in the ongoing international trade negotiation processes.
This experience allows me to arbitrate disputes related to free trade agreements, international contracts and trade regulations, applying deep technical knowledge and strategic vision to balance transnational interests.
Relevance to Arbitration: My ability to interpret trade treaties and mediate between parties with diverse interests enables me to resolve conflicts involving foreign trade, ensuring resolutions that comply with international regulations and promote economic competitiveness.
INVESTMENTS
Balance between Investment and Regulation
My work at COMEXPERU developing proposals to improve the business environment, liberalize foreign trade and increase competition in the Peruvian market on behalf of the national and international private sector, my experience at PROINNOVATE Peru evaluating innovative business projects, and my experience in consulting with entities such as FINCYT have strengthened my ability to analyze the viability and regulatory impact of investments. I have reviewed proposals that balance the interests of investors with the needs of sustainable economic development, a perspective that I apply to arbitration in investment cases. My experience at INDECOPI has also taught me to ensure that regulations are fair and do not unnecessarily hinder private initiatives, which is crucial in investment disputes.
Relevance to Arbitration: I can arbitrate disputes related to investment contracts, capital protection and regulatory compliance, offering decisions that promote a fair and attractive business environment for investors, based on rigorous technical analysis.
PRODUCTIVE DEVELOPMENT
Promoting Competitiveness and Sustainability
My work at UNIDO, leading projects to strengthen the quality of coffee and cocoa, together with my consulting on projects such as PRODUCE Business Clusters, and others like them, has given me a deep understanding of how policies and projects impact productive development.
I have worked with producers, district, provincial and regional governments, ministries and regulatory agencies to increase the competitiveness of key sectors, ensuring that regulations promote sustainable growth.
This experience allows me to arbitrate disputes in productive sectors, from agriculture to industry, resolving conflicts that affect innovation and economic development.
Relevance to Arbitration: My ability to assess the impact of regulations and foster collaboration between economic actors prepares me to arbitrate cases where productive development is at stake, ensuring resolutions that balance growth and equity.
SOCIAL AND BUSINESS MANAGEMENT
Mediating between companies and communities
My consulting in social management, especially in the mining sector with Metis Gaia, has taught me how to mediate between business interests and the needs of communities.
I have led baseline studies and assessments that balance economic development with social responsibility, working in all regions of Peru with actors at different levels. This experience, supported by my network of contacts at COMEXPERU and my work at INDECOPI, allows me to arbitrate disputes involving relationships between companies, communities and governments, ensuring solutions that respect social and economic dynamics.
Relevance to Arbitration: My ability to understand and resolve tensions between diverse parties qualifies me to arbitrate in cases where the social implications are as critical as the economic ones, offering ethical and sustainable decisions.
