Greenberg Traurig Mexico's Strategic Guidance for a $20 Billion Securities Initiative

On June 8, 2026, the Mexico office of the prominent global law firm Greenberg Traurig announced its advisory role to the country's Ministry of Finance and Public Credit (Secretaría de Hacienda y Crédito Público, or SHCP) on a significant financial initiative. The program sets out to establish fiduciary securities certificates with a total estimated value reaching MXN$20 billion. Notably, this program is backed by the Multiple Contributions Fund (Fondo de Aportaciones Múltiples, known as FAM), which aims to enhance educational infrastructure through targeted investment in schools with pressing needs.

As part of this engagement, Greenberg Traurig also facilitated the first issuance under this initiative, successfully rolling out an MXN$8 billion offering via the Mexican Stock Exchange (Bolsa Mexicana de Valores). This issuance marks an essential step in leveraging fiscal resources to meet educational demands across the nation.

Furthermore, the firm provided crucial advice regarding the establishment of a revolving credit facility amounting to MXN$4 billion, which is sourced from the National Bank for Public Works and Services (Banobras). The repayments for this credit will be managed through future revenues generated by the FAM. Such strategic financial maneuvers signify the government's commitment to uplift the educational framework through effective funding.

The resources generated from both the securities issuance and the credit facility are earmarked specifically for the More Schools for Well-Being Program (Más Escuelas para el Bienestar). This initiative targets the schools in Mexico most in need of infrastructure improvements, reflecting a proactive approach to addressing educational deficits and ensuring that adequate facilities are available to serve the student population.

Greenberg Traurig’s tactical legal support was spearheaded by seasoned Banking and Finance Practice shareholders Rodrigo Orozco Waters and Víctor Felipe Callarisa Rivera, alongside their team which included associates Bernardo Enrique Ochoa Sumano and Edgar Fernando Orozco Ceballos, and law clerk María Fernanda León. Their collaborative efforts underscore the importance of legal expertise in navigating complex financial landscapes while implementing significant public projects.

The SHCP plays a pivotal role as Mexico's federal ministry overseeing public finance, fiscal policy, and debt management, thus making the collaboration between the ministry and Greenberg Traurig all the more critical in working toward national objectives. Established funds like the FAM are specifically allocated to state infrastructure projects for education and social welfare, establishing a direct pathway for transformations in the educational sector.

Greenberg Traurig's Mexico office distinguishes itself by leveraging its diverse talents and extensive experience to deliver innovative legal strategies tailored to the clients' unique needs in today's fast-evolving regulatory environment. With over 70 bilingual professionals, the office has made significant contributions to numerous high-impact national projects. As part of Greenberg Traurig, LLP, which operates across 51 locations globally with approximately 3,100 lawyers, this office not only extends valuable legal guidance but also enhances the firm's global operational capabilities, benefitting clients in various industries and sectors.

This initiative exemplifies how legal expertise can drive meaningful social impact, particularly in the realm of education, by strategically allocating resources to where they are most needed. As the Mexico office continues to support initiatives like these, it reaffirms its commitment to fostering growth and sustainability in the nation's educational infrastructure.
