About

Since January 2011, Patricia Cristina Medeiros has been senior legal manager of Syngenta Proteção de Cultivos, a world leading agribusiness company in Brazil, with revenue of nearly US$3bn. She covers the finance and tax divisions of the legal department and reports directly to the CEO and general counsel of Latin America. She is responsible for the financial and tax matters including the treasury, insurance, financial programs and international contracts for the firm. To do this she leads a team of specialist lawyers that tackle individual areas creating a lot of expertise across the firm through training and education. In terms of major deals and transaction highlights, Medeiros has worked on the structuring of the company’s first securitisation operation through the Public Offers of Rural Bonds using the stock market exchange in Brazil. Additionally, she has been involved in new M&A work and investments across Brazil with a particular focus on serving the rural agricultural areas of Brazil. Describing her goals and career successes, Medeiros says her, ‘main interests were always related to corporate tax, tax planning projects and M&As. Since I had the chance to work and develop those major skills, it was a very natural transition to start to use this experience into banking and finance operations – which seems to be a congregation of all my skills in order to achieve a multidisciplinary path of great achievements and fulfilment’.
