Corporate and M&A

Praised for its ‘agile approach, clear communication, and constant availability’, Serrano Martínez CMA’s corporate and M&A practice maintains a marked focus on the mid-market and venture capital spheres. The team is chiefly active in transactions involving the energy, technology and consumer products sectors, while its share of the fintech market also continues to gain traction. Juan Diego Martinez co-heads the group and is lauded for his ’clear and concrete’ recommendations; he recently advised Anchor Worldwide Holdings on the sale of its 51% stake in Grupo Buentipo to other company shareholders. Camilo Merino co-heads the department and handles a mix of corporate, M&A, private equity and corporate governance work. Also recommended are associate practice directors Alejandro Medina (‘always willing to answer questions’) and Sebastián Morales Agudelo (’proactive and collaborative’), as well as new senior associate Maria Paula Cabuya, who joined in September 2024 from Brigard Urrutia. In August 2024, intermediate associate Valentina Castillo B left to study abroad.
