Foreign Direct Investment Projects

We have worked with numerous foreign investors and international corporations in the region. Our expertise spans a wide range of issues, including corporate matters, governmental incentives, employment advice, tax structuring, office leasing, territory planning, construction permits, and regulations for specific activities.

We have extensive experience in projects involving foreign investment support schemes and negotiations with governmental institutions. Our strong relationships with state investment agencies and municipalities help us achieve the best outcomes for our clients. We support investors throughout their entire journey, from market entry to exit, and have handled highly complex and delicate projects that garnered significant publicity.
