Indeed, M&A in the banking and financial services space is a core strength for the department, which is also proficient in advising international financial institutions on the setting up of local branches and the reorganisation of their activities in Spain. Fintech matters are another area of expertise for the team, which is also retained by payment solution providers, cryptoasset and trading platforms, as well as neobanks. Drawing on his experience as a credit and savings institutions inspector at the Bank of Spain, Fernando Mínguez is the trusted adviser to several credit and payment service providers. Miguel Sánchez Monjo is another name to note for financial regulatory work and fund formation matters, while Jorge Canta focuses on the setting up of investment services companies.
