Knowledge-development and sharing is a cornerstone of our team´s work. We are continuously in the lookout for new solutions and trends related to ESG opportunities and risks, and for this purpose we actively engage in several discussion and educational initiatives such as the Laboratory for Financial Innovation (LAB), in which we offer our perspective and legal analysis as well as provide capacity-building materials and training, including on a pro bono basis. Our team is part of the critical mass of professionals that actively contribute to the construction of the legal basis for sustainable finance and ESG investment tools in Brazil.


Our team also advises national and foreign clients in mapping, designing, drafting, negotiating and executing fundraising structures and investments for sustainable activities. Finally, our team also provides tailor-made assistance to clients in terms of mapping and managing risks and opportunities related to ESG aspects, by providing legal analysis and a framework to incorporate an ESG risk-management into their practice.
