In a recent move demonstrating its expansive growth strategy, Greenberg Traurig welcomed Alex Roussos and Anthony Zangrillo as capital markets shareholders. As announced by the firm on Thursday, Roussos will be enhancing the firm’s presence in the United Arab Emirates and Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, while Zangrillo strengthens the New York office. The dual appointments underscore Greenberg Traurig’s commitment to fortifying its international legal practices, particularly in capital markets.
Roussos comes with significant experience, particularly adept in advising on debt, regulatory capital, hybrid, and equity-linked transactions on a global scale. His expertise spans government, financial institutions, and corporate entities, notably in the Middle East. He is set to continue his work on cross-border transactions including bonds, sukuk offerings, and regulatory capital issuances. Roussos’ transition into Greenberg Traurig is seen as a strategic enhancement to the firm’s ability to navigate complex, high-stakes financial transactions across borders.
Meanwhile, Zangrillo’s presence in New York aligns with Greenberg Traurig’s growth objectives in North America. His competencies include representing sponsors, issuers, and underwriters, bolstering the firm’s capacity to manage intricate capital market operations domestically and internationally.
This expansion reflects an increasing demand for specialized legal expertise in capital markets, echoing the dynamic developments within this area of law. More details on this announcement can be found on Bloomberg Law.
