Counting an array of domestic and international banks, financial institutions and online payment platforms among its clients, Central American firm Mayora & Mayora, S.C. offers ‘comprehensive services’ across the full range of banking and finance matters, including cross-border loans, refinancings and project finance. The team is particularly well placed to handle regional transactions, working alongside its counterparts from the firm’s offices in Honduras and El Salvador. In addition, the group plays an active role in capital markets and regulatory issues (particularly in the fintech sphere), as well as banking M&A and the incorporation of financial entities in Guatemala. Claudia Pereira leads the practice, bringing longstanding experience in capital markets, trusts and project finance to the table. Other key figures include María Fernanda Morales Pellecer, a go-to adviser on banking regulation; regional managing partner Eduardo Mayora, ‘an outstanding professional with recognised national and international prestige’ whose practice spans banking and finance and capital markets matters; and senior associate Carlos Ortega.
