About

Provided by Payet, Rey, Cauvi, Pérez Abogados

Over more than twelve years, our environmental team stands out by providing specialized advice on environmental matters to cover all the economic sectors in which our clients operate. We have extensive experience in providing taxation and customs advice to investors in the telecommunication, banking and finance, education, electricity, mining, real state, manufacturing and trade sector. We advise local and multinational companies, financial institutions, investment funds and individuals on various issues of Tax Law.

Our lawyers bring a deep understanding of government agencies, social issues, technical challenges and the nuances of local and international regulations across a wide range of economic sectors. This experience enables us to provide comprehensive advisory services, whether preventive, transactional or litigation related.

Our strength is advising financial institutions on environmental and social risk assessment, especially in sustainable banking. We focus on green and carbon credits, helping clients design standards to measure the environmental and social risks associated with financial transactions. We are at the forefront of technological changes that promote renewable energy projects and other sustainable initiatives such as green hydrogen.

Unlike many other firms, we integrate ESG issues into our environmental practice, offering a global perspective that combines financial, business and technical expertise for all phases of projects and sectors.
