Gonzalo Rodríguez is a spanish lawyer and currently the General Coordinator of the Centre for Islamic Economics and Finance at the IE Business School, one to the top 10 Business Schools in the world according to the Financial Times. I can not see from this what it is he actually does for DCC at the moment. Is he simply an associate member who does not work for DCC at this point in time or does he undertake work for us, in which case it would be good to say what he does or has done for us?

Previously he was a lawyer at Triodos Bank, the leading ethical bank in Europe and legal adviser at Garrigues Abogados (the Iberian peninsula’s leading tax and legal services firm in terms of professional headcount and billing). He received his MAJ (LLM) from IE Business School, a Degree in law from Universidad Autonoma de Madrid, an International Executive Program in Islamic Finance at IE Business School and he also holds studies in political science from Universidad Complutense de Madrid.
