With more than 40 years of experience in the banking and finance sector, LEĜA stands out as a leading reference in the market, thanks to its ability to adapt nimbly to the constant changes in the industry. Our extensive experience has allowed us to forge strong relationships with a diversity of clients, from representative offices of international banks, to oil companies involved in complex financial transactions, investment funds, national and international banks, as well as development banks and institutional investors.

We have participated in major projects, including the negotiation of multi-million dollar financial agreements in the oil sector, comprehensive advice to international banks on regulatory and foreign exchange issues, the legal structuring of financial institutions such as venture capital funds, and the issuance and purchase of securities by institutional clients.

In addition, our collaboration with the Corporate Criminal Law area  has allowed us to assist financial institutions in regulatory compliance against money laundering and corruption, as well as in the interpretation of the  US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the Bribery Act in the United Kingdom. We have conducted significant corporate investigations related to regulatory breaches by financial institutions and represented investors affected by banking fraud internationally.
