This LawFlash supplements the Latin America Regulatory Landscape Analysis issued in May and summarizes the risk analysis in selected jurisdictions in the region, including Puerto Rico.
Puerto Rico, a political, economic, and cultural link between the continental United States and Latin America, is no exception to the adverse economic effects endured by US and Latin American economies due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. As the “Island of Enchantment” reopens its economy, we provide answers to commonly asked questions by international companies operating in Puerto Rico.
The Latin America team at Morgan Lewis has deep cultural and business ties with the region and a unique understanding of the challenges presented to our clients doing business there. We are uniquely positioned to timely and efficiently assist our clients during these challenging times. We provide counsel and the legal tools to help you transition to a new post-pandemic reality.
This LawFlash is for informational purposes only and does not constitute legal advice. Our team, together with our trusted network of local law firms, is ready to work with you and address your questions involving COVID-19 or any other matters you are facing while doing business in Latin America.
