Beckmann: JDBL is not involved in hydrocarbons, infrastructure or energy

JDBL and Compañía says it has no business in energy, hydrocarbons or infrastructure, correcting a report published by El Universal about a company allegedly formed by associates of Andy during Andrés Manuel López Obrador’s administration.

In a letter signed by Juan Domingo Beckmann Legorreta, the company describes itself as a shareholding and investment firm. It says its sole current activity is to operate as a family investment vehicle, holding shares issued by other companies and investments in financial instruments.

JDBL says none of its investments, and none of Beckmann’s other companies, has been connected to the energy, hydrocarbons or infrastructure industries, either currently or in the past. The company adds that its holdings are limited exclusively to businesses that have belonged to the family for generations.

The letter also says JDBL follows the strictest ethical and legal compliance standards. Beckmann asks El Universal to publish the clarification in full and give it the same prominence as the original report, so its audience receives what he describes as accurate information.
