Diego Caballero (died 1560) was a Spanish merchant and minor Conquistador in the Caribbean area and in the islands off the coast of Venezuela. He organised raids on natives, whom he then used as slaves in pearl fishing and other enterprises. He amassed enormous wealth in America, which he invested in further enterprises throughout the Spanish Empire. He thus became enormously wealthy, perhaps the most important Spanish merchant of his day. He held, or purchased, several official posts, in the service of the King, Charles V and in Seville.

Организовал налёты на туземцев, которых он затем использовал в качестве рабов на добыче жемчуга и других предприятиях. Накопил огромные богатства в Америке, вкладывал деньги в предприятия по всей Испанской империи. Таким образом стал очень богатым, возможно, самым влиятельным испанским купцом своего времени.
