Mexico: Banking
According to the IMF’s March 2012 report, Mexico’s banking sector was hit hard in the financial crisis, with economic activity falling in 2009 and financial markets experiencing a significant dip. However, effective fiscal management and good public administration has led to a strong recovery in the sector, and continued positive bilateral relations with the US have resulted in a productive foreign investment regime. Lawyers expect the financial recovery to accelerate as the government proposes reforms to develop Mexico’s capital markets. The banking legal market is relatively competitive, say our sources, but with clear leaders in the field, 30 of whom we list below.

In this chapter, we list 10 “superb” aviation lawyers who are all “well known” for their “technical expertise and client focus”.
