About

Provided by Galicia Abogados, S.C.

Our Project Finance practice has led Mexico's infrastructure and energy financing market for over three decades, structuring the non-recourse and limited-recourse deals that turn ambitious projects into bankable reality for sponsors, developers, lenders, and public sector clients alike.

We cover the full deal architecture: PPAs, PPP structures, EPC and O&M contracts, concessions, and government support and political-risk guarantees, with particular depth in upstream-to-downstream hydrocarbons and both conventional and renewable power, plus a growing edge in digital infrastructure and data centers, where bankability and technology now intersect.

Backed by market-leading Banking & Finance, Capital Markets, and Environmental teams, we deliver fully integrated financing structures that maximize access to capital and manage risk across the entire project lifecycle, the reason clients and the world's leading legal directories have recognized us as the region's top practice for more than 30 years running.
