Lawyer Rankings

Brazil > Capital markets

Praised for its ‘creativity’ and ability to ‘add value’, Demarest Advogados‘ fields a team with ‘in-depth knowledge of the capital markets area and related legislation‘. Led by Thiago Giantomassi, the group shines in complex, first-of-a-kind debt and equity products, where it regularly acts for major banks, investment funds, and debt issuers. The group is present in an array of key industries, most notably agribusiness and energy, advising on a broad range of matters, from tokenised securities trading to high-profile US listings. Asset-backed securitisations and investment funds-related matters are other key strengths for the department. Joao Paulo Minetto possesses strong credentials on the equity side, while recently promoted partner Leticia Galdino Wanderley has notable experience in the investment funds space. The practice was reinforced in December 2023 by the arrival of three partners from Lobo de Rizzo Advogados: Paula Magalhães, Maiara Madureira and Luiz Felipe Eustaquio.
