• Regulatory compliance diagnostics:

We participated in the negotiation and approval process of the National Anticorruption System. We also participated in the negotiation of the anticorruption chapters in Mexico’s recent Free Trade Agreements with the United States (USMCA) and the European Union (EUMFTA). We advised several local governments throughout the implementation process of such laws. Further, we have a detailed and thorough understanding of the actions required to comply with the new anticorruption framework and with anti-bribery international standards (ISO 37001: 2016).

 

We have also advised several clients, mainly in the financial and payment system sector, on compliance with anti-corruption and anti-money laundering obligations.

​

• Auditing and inspection:

Besides participating in the drafting and negotiation of the applicable law in this area, our lawyers were also advisors in the process of managing, explaining and overcoming observations and conclusions reached from internal and external auditing processes, as well as the Superior Federal Auditing Office (e.g. National Infrastructure Fund, public entities liquidation and several financial operations).

 

•  Administrative and criminal liability:

We have advised several clients in administrative liability proceedings in their different stages before the Ministry of Public Function and the Federal Court of Administrative Justice.

 

We have also participated and advised clients in various criminal proceedings in financial and tax matters.
