Argentina > Corporate and M&A
(Leading individuals)Best known for its formidable presence in energy M&A, Martínez de Hoz & Rueda’s efforts to widen its presence in other sectors has reaped dividends, with the number of non-energy transactions exceeding energy-related M&A work for the first time since the firm’s inception. Moreover, the firm has established a new corporate governance structure (as of August 2023) to further align its dual commitments to ongoing growth and institutionalisation. While oil-and-gas mandates remain the single biggest generator of fee income, the practice has successfully won an increasing volume of transactional and day-to-day corporate work in the financial services, consumer and technology industries among others. Practice head Fernando Zoppi is an experienced M&A lawyer and handles all types of M&A transactions, advising private equity and VC players, energy companies and telecoms groups among others. Partner Tomás Dellepiane’s all-round corporate experience is complemented by an active M&A practice, with the team also able to call on finance practice co-head Martín Lepiane and highly-respected energy lawyer José Martínez De Hoz for additional senior back-up. Transaction-focused associate Marcos Blanco leads the practice’s second line, which has been bolstered with the April-2022 hire of Sofia Reymundo, previously with Tanoira Cassagne Abogados.
