Decades after forming with Argos and Sura one of the main economic conglomerates in the country framed in the so-called Antioqueño Business Group (GEA), they unexpectedly changed ownership and now, without having yet recovered from the blow, a possible new change is seen with which Jaime Gilinski’s family group would see up to triple the amount they originally paid and with which, most likely, it would pass into foreign hands.
