Baker & McKenzie’s Raymundo Enriquez reflects on the dramatic changes his firm has witnessed while practising in the turbulent Latin American market for more than 50 years
When our firm began opening offices in Latin America 55 years ago, it was a very different world. Most of our initial work centred on helping US companies set up subsidiaries in countries like Venezuela. We later helped clients establish manufacturing plants in Mexico during its industrialisation boom in the 1960s and guided investors through strict foreign investment regulation throughout Latin America.
