“We are delighted and proud to welcome David as Tax Partner to our Luxembourg tax team. There are some very natural synergies between David and our Firm.”

“David’s technical profile and experience is a great complement to our tax practice and will allow us to actively develop the Spanish and LatAm markets. He has a well-developed client base across Latin America and will therefore be instrumental in expanding our LatAm practice and it is great to have him on board.”

David Cordova Flores, Tax Partner, says:

“I am thrilled to join the dynamic and welcoming Luxembourg team. I am excited to build on the great work that the team has achieved within the world of private capital. With strong collaboration with teams located across many of the world's key wealth management centres, I am confident than I can bring my expertise to help grow the LatAm practice of our Firm.”
