John Tobon Bio Photo

John
Tobon, CAMS

Ex-Subdirector, División de Lucha contra el Crimen Organizado Transnacional, Investigaciones de Seguridad Nacional (HSI)
Profesor Adjunto, Escuela de Asuntos Internacionales y Públicos Steven J. Green, Universidad Internacional de Florida (FIU)

Después de 31 años de servicio, el Sr. Tobon se retiró de la agencia de Investigaciones de Seguridad Nacional (HSI, por sus siglas en inglés) como Sub-director. En este cargo, lideró la estrategia global de HSI dirigida a combatir el Crimen Organizado Transnacional. El Sr. Tobon es reconocido por su experiencia en investigaciones de lavado de dinero y delitos financieros, contribuyendo frecuentemente con análisis para medios de comunicación nacionales e internacionales. El Sr. Tobon también es conocido por su excepcional capacidad para fomentar la colaboración entre agencias gubernamentales y entidades en el sector privado, impulsando iniciativas conjuntas exitosas. Su profundo conocimiento de ambos sectores le permite cerrar brechas, alinear objetivos y crear soluciones mutuamente beneficiosas. Su estilo facilita la comunicación abierta, lo cual resulta en confianza mutua y asegura alineamiento en el logro de objetivos comunes. Gracias a su enfoque colaborativo, el Sr. Tobon ha contribuido a agilizar esfuerzos, optimizar recursos y maximizar el impacto en una variedad de proyectos complejos, incluyendo su labor como Asesor Principal de FinCEN durante la implementación de la Ley contra el Lavado de Dinero de 2020 y la Ley de Transparencia Corporativa. Ha sido fundamental en la formulación de políticas internacionales contra el lavado de dinero a través de su trabajo como parte de delegaciones estadounidenses ante organismos multinacionales, como el Grupo de Acción Financiera Internacional (GAFI), y compartiendo regularmente su experiencia en conferencias y sesiones de capacitación a nivel global. El Sr. Tobon continúa participando activamente en la lucha contra los delitos financieros a través de su trabajo como consultor y como Profesor Adjunto en la Escuela de Asuntos Internacionales y Públicos de la Universidad Internacional de Florida, donde imparte clases sobre Delitos Financieros Globales. Posee una Maestría en Justicia Penal de la Universidad de la Ciudad de Nueva York (CUNY), John Jay College of Criminal Justice, es Coach Profesional Certificado y su lengua materna es el español.
