US banking operations serving Latin American corporate clients
Bci Miami operates as the US branch of a 75+ year-old Chilean bank, focused on corporate and personal banking for Latin American clients expanding into North America. The tech stack is traditional banking (SWIFT, IBM i, AS/400, Salesforce) with recent adoption of workflow tools (Smartsheet, Monday.com), pointing toward operational modernization. Hiring velocity is accelerating, concentrated heavily in finance and legal—reflecting regulatory complexity and the cash-management-heavy business model (trade finance, factoring, forfaiting).
