Baker McKenzie’s 23rd Annual Latin America Tax & Transactional Conference provided an unrivalled opportunity for representatives from major multinationals to meet with Baker McKenzie and Trench Rossi Watanabe* practitioners, as well as special guest speakers to discuss the shifting sands of the tax and transactional space and what business should expect moving forward.
The conference, held at the InterContinental Hotel in Miami, Florida, incorporated more than 15 sessions across a range of topics, from the use of AI in tax departments to the most international tax updates and reforms worldwide, including the OECD Two-Pillar Solution, and significant changes to tax rules in the U.S. and Europe and their impact on business and transactions in Latin America.
“The excitement in the air was palpable as we reunited with in-house legal teams, tax practitioners, accountants, economists, fund managers, private equity professionals, business development leaders, and many more senior management colleagues seeking an in-depth understanding of the current legal framework across the Americas. The overall outlook for deals and investments in the region was positive, particularly in Brazil and Mexico,” said Gustavo Boruchowicz, Chair of Baker McKenzie’s Latin America region. "As the first global law firm to open doors in Latin America 70 years ago, Baker McKenzie is well positioned and experienced to serve as a connection point between Latin America's local markets and North America, Europe and Asia Pacific for multinational clients."
Ranked by Chambers Global for its work across the Americas, Asia, Africa and Europe, Baker McKenzie's Tax Practice is one of the most highly regarded in the world. With 900 tax practitioners in more than 40 countries, the Practice collaborates across borders and specialties to stay abreast of changing tax landscapes worldwide. The Firm's Tax Planning and Transactions group supports the Firm's M&A Practice on transactions, assisting clients with post-acquisition integrations and pre-disposition restructurings, and consulting with clients on a wide variety of tax issues to ensure all corporate and tax implications are comprehensively addressed.
