This is a transcript excerpt from the Cracks podcast episode "La Historia de INBURSA por CARLOS SLIM" (host Oso Trava, guest Carlos Slim). The speakers discuss how large groups try to preserve advantages of small companies, why conglomerates often fail, and how Slim organizes his businesses as separate, semi-autonomous companies with few hierarchical levels. Slim recounts Inbursa’s history (founded 1965), its bank concession received in the early 1990s (around 1993), its resilience through crises (did not require bailout/support in major banking crises), and its current position (Slim notes the wider group operates in 49 countries with ~360,000 employees). The conversation also touches on corporate governance and family involvement and succession.
