He was the Governor of the Central Bank of Ecuador from November 2011, until he resigned in 2012 after accepting that he had lied about having a degree in economics.[1]
In 2015, he was sentenced to eight years in prison for the embezzlement of public funds, resulting from an illicit loan for $800,000 to the Argentinian Gaston Duzac in 2011. This happened during Correa's regime.[2]
