Martínez de Hoz & Rueda is often sought after to act as corporate regulatory compliance officer, helping regulated entities translate complex obligations into workable internal policies, procedures and controls. Team head Martín Lepiane is a trusted adviser to financial institutions regarding Central Bank compliance, AML governance, regulatory filings and day-to-day risk control. His work is complemented by Marcos Blanco, who advises on privacy and data protection matters, particularly in the context of internal investigations, self-audits and compliance programmes involving sensitive information. Following the firm's February 2026 absorption of MBP Partners - Abogados, the practice group was further strengthened with the arrival of Ignacio Meggiolaro, who possesses extensive knowledge of anti-money laundering and other financial regulations affecting broker dealers and banks. At associate level, Gonzalo Pacheco (who also arrived from MBP) has experience in the redesign of AML frameworks and risk matrices.
