Garrigues

Singled out for its ‘in-depth knowledge of regulations and contact with the CNMV’ (the Spanish National Securities Market Commission), Garrigues is well placed to advise on the gamut of equity capital market transactions, which often include novel and first-of-a-kind structures. Despite the slowdown in activity in the ECM space over the past couple of years, the team has remained busy advising financial institutions and major corporates on IPOs and listings on BME Growth, bookbuild offerings, repurchase programmes, and public M&A. Àlvaro López-Jorrín has considerable experience in the issuance of both equity and fixed-income securities. Gonzálo García-Fuertes is the primary contact in the team for big-ticket IPOs, while Leticia Comin, who previously served as chief of staff to the president of the CNMV, is often engaged in capital raising processes and corporate governance matters involving listed companies.
