Alejandro Moscoso del Prado

Our counsel Moscoso del Prado provides practical advice in corporate group restructurings and cross-border transactions, taking into account not only the tax aspects that may be of importance for achieving the client's goals but also the legal and commercial objectives and constraints. Alejandro focuses his practice on international tax planning (with a special focus in the Latin American countries such as Colombia, Mexico, Uruguay, Chile, Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Argentina, Panama, Peru and Ecuador), corporate tax reorganizations and financing aspects of M&A transactions, and the international tax aspects of inbound and outbound investments. Over the last years, Alejandro has provided tax advice on a number of high-profile corporate transactions which have received wide press coverage in the Spanish market (as demonstrated by our submissions in recent years (including this year’s submission)). Alejandro has participated and advised in a wide range of projects such as mergers and demergers, joint ventures, real estate investments/divestments and debt restructurings. His experience shows an in-depth knowledge of international and corporate taxation, with a special focus on the renewable energy sector, insurance sector and the new forms of taxation applicable to the digital economy. In fact, Alejandro is the firm's main contact worldwide in connection with the new Global Minimum Tax and over the last two years he has provided advisory services to both large multinational companies and governments on the impact of this new tax and its implementation. The Legal 500 directory has recognised Alejandro as a "Rising Star" in the Tax category in 2023 and 2024. · Tax
