Jaime Vives appointed president of Coljuegos in Colombia
The Colombian Ministry of Finance has appointed Jaime Vives as the new president of Coljuegos, the entity responsible for administering games of chance and luck in Colombia. Vives, a business administrator and specialist in high management with over 25 years of experience, primarily from the private sector, takes over the role to oversee the country's gaming monopoly.
Coljuegos plays a critical role in the national healthcare system, as it transfers significant funds from gaming activities to the subsidized health regime. Vives faces the challenge of increasing revenue in a sector currently impacted by high levels of illegality and informality.
