Scotiabank Colpatria
In July 2018, Colpatria and Scotiabank announced their merger to strengthen the position of both banks within Colombia drawing on Scotiabank’s international resources and Colpatria’s local presence and knowledge.
The legal team of the combined company has been invaluable in the integration of the merger, through its diligent management of the resulting changes which have added half a million more customers to Scotiabank’s portfolio.
The team also advised on the company’s purchase of the digital and SME business from Citibank in Colombia, a major investment for the growth at the bank.
