Risk Prevention: José Vicente Zapata
Energy & Natural Resources attorney José Vicente Zapata was interviewed by El Nuevo Siglo about Holland & Knight's new Market and Geopolitical Advisory initiative, a firmwide platform designed to help companies, boards and senior executives navigate geopolitical volatility, regulatory fragmentation and increased government intervention in global markets. The article highlighted how the initiative brings together the firm's capabilities in government affairs, international trade, compliance, transactions, financial services, litigation and investigations to provide integrated, business-focused guidance. Mr. Zapata noted that companies operating in Latin America increasingly need to combine a regional perspective with coordinated counsel across multiple legal and regulatory areas to make informed and profitable decisions.
"In Colombia and Latin America, multinationals are making investment decisions in an increasingly complex and dynamic environment," he said. "Holland & Knight's government practice, recognized as a leader in Washington, D.C., combined with its cross-border team of highly experienced attorneys in Bogotá, offers clients a clear strategic advantage."
