Exploration and development of the Pre-Salt Layer presents opportunities not only for state run companies such as Petrobras, but also private companies and especially those upstream and midstream contractors, such as drill ships, deepwater subsea trees and tie-in systems and pipeline systems to name a few.

Brazil Adopts A New Law Authorizing Credit Reporting Registries and Credit Reports: Has the Time for Cross-border Consumer Structured Finance Finally Arrived to Brazil?

Fri, 02 Sep 2011 11:33:46 GMT

Protecting Liens on Debtors’ Commercial Tort Claims

Tue, 07 Feb 2012 10:44:18 GMT

Commercial tort claims of a debtor can constitute valuable collateral for a secured party, provided, of course, the secured party’s lien on that collateral is properly created and perfected.
