BMA plays an important role in innovative, complex transactions in the capital markets


With our keen focus on developments in the capital markets, we have achieved recognition for our legal work in important IPOs and a growing volume of debt and securitization transactions, acting both for issuers and for the investment banks that coordinate their offerings.


With decades of experience behind us, and the active involvement of our partners at every phase, we possess the knowledge and skills needed to resolve the many – and sometimes unpredictable – issues that can arise in the course of an offering. Composed of attorneys that have a mix of national and international training and experience, our team has expertise and agility, forming a multidisciplinary workforce that generates efficient ways of solving complex problems.


In-depth knowledge of the legislation and regulations applicable to issuers and their transactions means that we can take advantage of advances in the market to find new ways to meet challenges, ensure that clients achieve their funding objectives, and contribute to debate over the new perspectives for the sector.
