About Fernando Chico Pardo

Fernando Chico Pardo started his first company in Mexico City at age 27, a stock brokerage called Acciones y Asesoría Bursátil.

That brokerage later became part of Grupo Financiero Inbursa, a banking and financial group controlled by Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim.

After he left Inbursa in 2003, Chico Pardo became a controlling shareholder in Grupo Aeroportuario del Sureste (Asur), which operates nine airports in Mexico and one in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

He also runs private equity fund Promecap, which has acquired interests in or provided funding for a variety of Mexican companies.
