Mónica Acosta

Regulation and Corporate Affairs Manager | British American Tobacco

About

For 18 years Mónica Acosta has worked in the British American Tobacco (BAT) Colombia legal team, occupying a number of senior positions. She is recognised for her wide-ranging expertise in a number of fields and for helping to ensure BAT operates a sustainable business in the region. In 2013 Acosta was appointed regulation and corporate affairs manager, helping the company to manage the risks arising from tighter regulations on tobacco sales and marketing activities in Colombia. In this role Acosta is also responsible for maintaining relationships with the Colombian government and other stakeholders in the control and licensing of tobacco products, and communicating these messages to the business. Prior to heading regulatory and corporate affairs, Acosta oversaw the integration of Productora Tabacalera de Colombia (Protabaco), the second largest cigarette company in Colombia with almost a third of all cigarette sales, acquired by BAT in 2011 for around $450m.
