About

In his role at the Anglo-Australian mining giant BHP Billiton, Nicolas Lustig oversees the legal strategy of Minera Escondida, the largest copper mine in the world. Having joined BHP Billiton in 2015, Lusting has already captured the headlines in Chile with his exceptional work on one of the most complex negotiations on collective bargaining in the mining sector. After more than 15 years of experience in the financial and securities market, employment law was not one of Lustig’s specialisms. Nevertheless, Lustig managed to successfully oversee the Minera Escondida legal strategy during a sanctioned strike, recording several victories, with estimated daily losses at over $20m. Lustig’s strong negotiating skills, dedication, long-term planning and strategic foresight were visible throughout the process. Previously, Lustig worked as the head of legal of LarrainVial, one of the largest financial intermediation and advisory firms in Latin America. Before that he was employed as an associate general counsel of Grupo Nueva, an investment holding company, specialised in the business of forestry and wood derivatives. He started his career in private practice at law firms Claro & Cia and Greenberg Traurig, where he developed his skills and expertise in corporate law and financial transactions.
