Seminars on international markets
June 7th, 2023
Meeting “Business opportunities for the Spanish investor in Chile and Mexico in 2023”, in collaboration with Garrigues.
The Spanish Exporters and Investors Club and Garrigues organized an exclusive meeting for Club members, which focused on the legal framework and business opportunities offered by Chile and Mexico in 2023 for Spanish investors.
Many countries are registering pre-pandemic levels of FDI. Chile and Mexico are two of the countries that receive the most foreign direct investment in Latin America, behind Brazil. Spain is one of the main investors in both cases, second in Mexico and sixth in Chile. With the recovery of investment levels in these countries and Spain’s role as an investor, new business opportunities are expected to arise for Spanish companies in different sectors of interest.
To gain an in-depth understanding of the business climate in both countries, attendees had the opportunity to learn insider information from Gabriela Pérez, partner at Garrigues Mexico, specializing in transaction finance and corporate M&A; and Jaime de Larraechea, partner at Garrigues Chile, an expert in mergers and acquisitions, transaction finance and the stock market, venture capital and Fintech. Both shared with the attendees the most relevant aspects of the country’s economy, the political climate, as well as the most active investment sectors and legal developments in each of these markets.
