The Firm also advises clients on their participation in shareholders’ and quotaholders’ meetings and meetings of corporate management and supervisory bodies; on foreign investments in Brazil and Brazilian investments abroad, inflows and outflows of funds and assets, profit remittances and capital repatriation; and on representation before company registries and regulatory authorities, including the Central Bank of Brazil.
