Raúl is a seasoned banking and finance practitioner with more than 25 years of experience, including having served as General Counsel at Banco Inbursa and other major corporate entities. He currently heads the Banking & Finance practice, bringing a deep understanding of corporate finance, capital markets, and regulatory matters, with a proven ability to lead complex, high stakes transactions across multiple sectors.
His track record includes advising on landmark transactions such as Grupo Carso’s partnership with CFE, AT&T’s acquisition of shares in América Móvil, and the USD $2.4 billion sale of Inbursa’s equity stake to La Caixa.
He has been highly active in major domestic and cross border banking transactions, including leading what is considered one of the largest cross border credits granted to a Mexican entity in recent years: the representation of a syndicate of Mexican development banks Banobras, Bancomext, and Nafin together with 13 commercial banks, in connection with the structuring and execution of a USD $14.9 billion syndicated credit facility with an eight year tenor.
Additionally, he advised Mota‑Engil México on the financing and development of major petrochemical projects with Pemex, including the design, construction, operation, and maintenance of a urea production plant in Escolín under a long‑term BOT/tolling project finance model, as well as a separate ammonia project in Cosoleacaque, for an aggregate amount of approximately USD 1.605 billion.
