Giorgio Giovanni Subiotto

Giorgio has been practising law with Ogier in the Cayman Islands since 2002 and has been a partner since 2006. His practice spans Ogier's Corporate, Investment Funds, and Private Wealth groups. He is the co-head of Ogier's global Latin American practice.

A large part of Giorgio's practice is investment funds, where he works on the whole life-cycle of hedge funds and closed-ended funds – private equity, venture capital, real estate – including guiding funds through stress points, such as during the 2008 financial crisis. Giorgio also acts for investors into funds and advises on the establishment and ongoing regulatory compliance of Cayman-based investment managers, investment advisers, distributors and arrangers.

His corporate practice is heavily focused on venture capital transactions, including the establishment of Cayman holding companies to support start-ups in their capital raising and international expansion, working with them on seed and later rounds of financing, and working with them on exits, either through M&A acquisition or IPO. He also represents investors into these VC structures. Other corporate work includes SPAC and de-SPAC transactions, general joint venture work and advising boards in respect of take-overs and mergers.
