Career

Jean advises Brazilian and international corporations, financial institutions and institutional investors in a wide array of capital markets and financial and corporate transactions.

With more than 25 years’ experience, Jean advises companies in a diverse range of industries on accessing capital markets – from entry through to obtaining initial registration with the Brazilian Securities & Exchange Commission (CVM) or listing securities with B3 and other organized markets. His services also include structuring and carrying out public offerings and private placements of shares, debt and hybrid securities, listing securities on organized markets, and assisting with market withdrawals through public acquisition offers or reorganizations involving publicly-held and private companies.

Jean applies his experience to advise publicly-held companies, financial institutions and institutional investors in meeting their legal, regulatory and self-regulatory obligations to participate in securities markets. He also advises on structuring and conducting fundraising, investments, divestments, reorganizations and other corporate transactions involving publicly-held companies or companies seeking to go public. Jean works with private equity and venture capital investments and divestments, especially structures linked to regulated markets or for withdrawing from the market through public offerings and stock market listings. He also defends capital market participants in administrative disciplinary proceedings filed by the CVM, and has recently focused on advising both investors and clubs with their investments in football, given the enactment of legislation creating a new corporate type for Brazilian football clubs (the Sociedade Anônima do Futebol). Jean is also a member of the Regulatory Committee of the Brazilian Association of Venture Capital and Private Equity (ABVCAP).
