MercadoLibre Inc.’s chief financial officer is leaving the company following a two-decade stint during which the e-commerce provider developed its logistics network, its fintech arm and emerged as a regional giant.

Pedro Arnt, who joined the company in 1999 as a vice president for marketing and sales, left to pursue new opportunities, the firm said in a statement Thursday. He’ll be replaced by Martin De Los Santos, a senior vice president at the firm’s credit division.
