'Efficiency, quality' and 'legal certainty' are the calling cards of the first-rate team at Cuatrecasas, which is routinely instructed by companies in the financial services, education, real estate and retail spaces seeking assistance with a range of capital markets mandates. Core areas of expertise include the issuance of securities and bonds, the structuring of financial instruments, the negotiation of financing contracts, the implementation of IPO strategies and the restructuring of debt and equity. The practice is directed by capital markets specialist Gizeh Polo, who joined the firm from Creel, García-Cuéllar, Aiza y Enríquez, S.C. in September 2023 and is praised for his 'track record of first transaction design' and 'exceptional capacity for diagnosis, creativity and innovation'.

- 'Gizeh Polo is the main reason we went with Cuatrecasas. Gizeh has a track record of first transaction design for a lot of vehicles (Fibra-E, CERPI, complex trusts, etc.) Gizeh has an exceptional capacity for diagnosis, creativity and innovation.'
- 'I would highlight the support of Gustavo Robles, Iván Libenson and Marco de la Peña. Marco, like Gizeh Polo, has a lot of experience in different sectors. This allows them to ‘import’ experiences from other industries and to understand very well what we look after from the business side.'
