CMS Grau announced the addition of Kiomi Osorio as a partner, a move that strengthens its capabilities in mergers and acquisitions (M&A) and structured finance, consolidating its position in the Peruvian legal market for highly complex and sophisticated transactions. This addition enhances the firm’s Corporate and M&A team, which will now consist of five partners and ten associates, strengthening its capacity for complex transactions with a strategic, efficient approach aligned with the demands of the Peruvian legal market.
Kiomi joins the law firm, increasing the total number of partners to 27, and with the vision of contributing her extensive knowledge and experience in the mergers and acquisitions sector.
According to information disseminated in the media, the deals market started 2026 very dynamically, with around 15 transactions worth USD 3.2 billion in the first two months, representing a growth of 2,413% compared to the first two months of the previous year.
“Kiomi joins the firm at a key moment for the development of the deals market in the country. Her experience, strategic vision, and ability to lead complex transactions strengthen our value proposition and our commitment to supporting our clients in their most important decisions,” commented Rolando Cevasco, managing partner of CMS Grau.
For his part, Miguel Viale, partner in the Corporate and M&A area at CMS Grau, highlighted the strengthening of a key practice area for the firm, one with high growth expectations in the current economic climate. “Sectors such as mining, energy, technology, and agribusiness will drive M&A activity in Peru through the second half of 2026 and the end of the year, so having a professional with Kiomi’s track record and experience will be fundamental to continuing to support our clients in increasingly sophisticated and high-value transactions,” he stated.
For Kiomi, it’s a challenge she embraces with great enthusiasm and a strong commitment to contributing to the firm’s and the area’s growth. “I’m joining CMS Grau at a dynamic time in the market, with the goal of continuing to develop complex transactions that integrate M&A and Finance, supporting our clients in strategic investment and financing decisions,” she stated.
Throughout his career, he has advised local and international clients on corporate and financial transactions, including mergers and acquisitions, project finance, acquisition finance, and capital markets transactions, many with a multi-jurisdictional component and complex financing and investment structures. His practice is distinguished by integrating M&A and Finance in the structuring and implementation of transactions, enabling comprehensive advice on deals where investment, financing, and execution converge, for both sponsors and financial institutions.
With this addition, CMS Grau continues to strengthen its corporate practice, one of the firm’s most dynamic, in a context where companies demand comprehensive advice with an international focus.
In recent years, the mergers and acquisitions market in Peru has shown sustained growth, driven by companies’ need to adapt to new regulatory environments, access financing, and explore growth opportunities. In this context, specialized advisory services are key to structuring efficient and sustainable transactions.
The addition of Kiomi is part of CMS Grau’s growth strategy, aimed at consolidating high-level teams and continuing to position itself as one of the leading law firms in the country, with a comprehensive service offering and a client-centric approach.
