It is notably active in project financings involving New York or UK law-governed syndicated senior loans, particularly in relation to energy, infrastructure and industrial production, including carbon-neutral energy initiatives. The practice is also increasingly involved in fintech matters. Felipe Rencoret Prieto acts on acquisition, corporate and project finance, along with debt reorganisations, restructuring and bond issues; and Luis Izquierdo’s workload includes advising on project finance. Former senior associate Ana Azócar departed for electric power company Enel Chile in August 2025.
