Winston & Strawn LLP has boldly expanded its Latin America team, most notably with the launch of a large Miami office in May 2022. While the Miami team is not primarily focused on capital markets business, it does heighten the firm’s Latin America credibility and ability to win new clients and engagements. A New York group combined with the São Paulo office, spearhead the capital markets work, which has a fine record in future flow securitisations, SEC-registered deals and public M&A. The firm is also recognised for advising on inaugural bond offerings for Latin American issuers and has landed a number of SPAC IPO engagements. Rodrigo Carvalho has developed a substantial reputation in São Paulo, leading advice to clients on a number of IPOs and equity offerings, including SPAC transactions. Allen Miller and Talbert Navia co-head the Latin America team, which includes capital markets specialists Claude Serfilippi and Sey-Hyo Lee. All named individuals are based in New York unless stated otherwise.
