A regulatory stalwart, Lloreda Camacho & Co.’s banking and finance practice demonstrates a significant orientation towards advising on product development, representing financial entities before the Superintendence of Finance, and assisting with the incorporation of financial entities. Less frequently, the group also acts on financing transactions. Department head Carlos Carvajal — who additionally leads the government contracting, infrastructure and real estate practices — is equipped to handle both regulatory and transactional matters. Corporate and M&A head Santiago Gutiérrez is another important resource due to his experience working in-house at several financial institutions, including Banco Extebandes. Five-year associate Santiago Garzón is recommended for his focus on fintech.
