Capabilities by Region: Latin America

Greenhill has considerable advisory experience in the Latin American region. Our Managing Directors and professionals have advised clients on transactions involving many of the leading companies in the region and have access to a broad network of public and private corporate relationships throughout Latin America.

In addition to advising clients on cross-border transactions historically, Greenhill has further expanded its presence in Latin America by opening a São Paulo office in 2013 and added New York-based Managing Directors to cover clients in non-Brazilian markets. 

Greenhill’s São Paulo team, led by Co-Heads Daniel Wainstein and Rodrigo Mello, has extensive experience in Brazil, and focuses on both domestic and cross-border M&A advisory and capital raising activities on behalf of clients. 

Mario Orozco joined Greenhill in 2016 to focus on opportunities in Latin America outside of Brazil, including Mexico, Central America, the Andean region and Caribbean.
