The selection process for the head of Guatemala’s Comptroller General of Accounts (CGC) has taken an unexpected turn with the inclusion of representatives from two universities linked to Walter Mazariegos, rector of the Universidad de San Carlos de Guatemala (Usac). This marks the first time universities outside of Usac will participate in the post-application commission. Specifically, representatives from the Universidad Juan José Arévalo and the Universidad Americana will join the process, signaling a shift in the CGC’s leadership selection criteria.
