Dentons‘s six-member team is experienced in significant energy-related project finance deals, especially carbon-neutral matters. The group is regularly involved in transactions that are structured as syndicated senior loans from foreign financial institutions, and also houses experts in sustainability-linked financings. Leading the team, Felipe Rencoret Prieto routinely acts on acquisition, corporate and project finance, along with debt restructurings and bond issues. Notable support is provided by Luis Izquierdo, whose experience includes advising various foreign funds on complex financings to Chilean companies; and senior associate Matías González, who acts for both major local banks and energy project sponsors.
