Hughes Hubbard & Reed LLP‘s Latin America practice has undergone a period of transition with a new generation of leaders, such as Emilio Saiz, who is now chair of the Latin America practice and head of the Miami office. Finance specialist Saiz has sustained the firm’s prominence in syndicated loans in Brazil, Mexico and Colombia; bilateral loans and sustainability-linked facilities are also key areas of strength. The Miami-based Latin America team has longstanding connections to major lenders and has further developed its standing among borrowers in recent years. Mark Denham is noted for aviation finance, including aircraft leases and loans, pre-delivery payment financings and warehouse facilities, among other transactions. Top finance practitioner Amy Dulin has retired, while versatile Latin America specialist Federico Goudie and Latin America M&A expert Ruben Diaz have left the firm, along with international arbitration specialist Luis O’Naghten.
