About

Practice Areas
As Hogan Lovells' Global Coordinator for Derivatives and Commodities, Evan Koster demystifies complex financial products and their legal implications – in both English and Spanish – and represents clients in a broad spectrum of derivatives, commodities, and structured products in the United States and Latin America.
Evan's experience is both broad – including all asset classes, such as commodities, fixed income, foreign exchange, and equities – and narrow, including energy derivatives (e.g., natural gas, oil, power) and energy trading. In addition to his transactional work, he counsels clients regarding Dodd-Frank derivatives regulatory and compliance issues, and has been active in advocacy related to the Dodd-Frank rulemaking process.
Not content with having just one area of focus, Evan also represents clients in Latin American debt capital markets, especially energy-related transactions, in both primary offerings and liability management exercises such as restructurings. He has represented clients in leading sovereign and quasi-sovereign debt transactions in Latin America, including the Republic of Ecuador's return to the capital markets in 2014.
Career
Before joining Hogan Lovells, Evan was an in-house derivatives counsel at two financial institutions and an outside derivative counsel to a number of Fortune 500 companies and sovereign entities.
