BUSINESS STRUCTURING ABROAD

Changes to the global economy over the past decades have promoted the expansion of business of numerous Brazilian companies abroad and the transformation of many of these companies into multinationals operating in different countries in the most varied economic sectors.

In anticipation of such capital export process, we developed an extensive internationalization project portfolio, which offers us today differentiated expertise in the market to assist clients that wish to invest and establish abroad.

We advise our clients in all corporate, tax, contractual, foreign exchange, labor, and social security aspects, including legal support in cross-border M&A transactions, preparation of expatriation policies and stock option plans, international corporate reorganizations, application of international treaties and conventions, preparation of global operating agreements, etc.

We have built lasting and reliable relationships with the most respected international law firms and consulting companies. We actively participate in two international networks strongly dedicated to the tax area: LATAXNET, comprised of top tier law firms that allows us to develop and coordinate projects in all Latin American countries; and WTS Global, a worldwide network based in Germany, operating in more than 100 countries.

Highlights of our work abroad:

  • Consulting in international structuring and corporate reorganizations, including the implementation of the respective projects, together with foreign law firms (establishment of companies and joint ventures abroad, preparation and negotiation of shareholders’ agreements, bylaws and articles of association, etc.)
  • Advisory in international taxation and foreign exchange-related matters
  • Consulting in the preparation of expatriation policies and global granting of benefits
  • Advisory in international contracts and cross-border transactions
