President Gustavo Petro demanded the resignation of Ecopetrol's vice president for the Andean region, Bernardo Forero Duarte, amid investigations into illicit enrichment. This request occurs alongside changes in the company's board of directors and the CNE's sanction on the 2022 presidential campaign, which impacts current Ecopetrol president Ricardo Roa. Petro also distanced himself from the USO's stance on the Permian basin business.
Banco de Bogotá's Shareholders' Assembly confirmed Juan Carlos Echeverry Garzón as its new president starting May 6, replacing César Prado. Echeverry, with extensive experience in public and private sectors, takes over while Jorge Castaño Gutiérrez serves as interim president.
