Active in Spain for decades, Davis Polk established an office in Madrid in 2001 to better serve our extensive list of Spanish and international clients. Lawyers in our Madrid office work closely with their colleagues in New York and London on the full spectrum of corporate transactions involving Spanish and Latin American companies.
Davis Polk represents every Spanish company listed on the New York Stock Exchange, and we have long-standing relationships with a number of Spain's leading companies, including Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria and Banco Santander (the two largest banks in Spain), Repsol YPF (Spain's largest oil company) and Telefónica (the largest Spanish company in terms of market capitalization). We have represented these clients, as well as various of their Latin American subsidiaries and affiliates, in capital markets, mergers and acquisitions, joint venture, lending and project finance transactions in Spain, Latin America and throughout the world.
Furthermore, Davis Polk has been involved in a substantial majority of initial public offerings by Spanish companies over the past five years.
