2023 Deals of the Year
Awards Winners

The LatinFinance Deals of the Year Awards are the landmark recognition of stand-out transactions and institutions in the capital markets of Latin America and the Caribbean.

This year’s winners were selected by a panel of judges on LatinFinance’s editorial team, after a rigorous process that involved the review of a record number of submissions this year against the backdrop of one of the most turbulent markets we’ve seen.

LatinFinance Awards are judged independently by financial journalists and there is no cost to submit a deal or institution for consideration.
