Accompanying them is a team of five associates: Pietro Castoldi, Diego Del Principe, Pietro Grieco, Anita Lucchini, and Federico Mariani.
With over 25 years of collaborative experience, Federico and Corrado are highly regarded for their expertise in structured finance and their ability to innovate within the banking and finance sectors.

The integration of Federico and Corrado aligns with Bird & Bird's strategic goals to expand its Finance & Financial Regulation practice both within Italy and internationally. The firm’s international Finance & Financial Regulation co-heads, Joss Hargrave, Michael Jünemann, and Giuseppe D'Agostino, emphasise the significance of this expansion in the context of the rapidly evolving and increasingly digital finance sector. Federico and Corrado's expertise in the securitisation market, combined with Bird & Bird's leading role in digital financial markets and crypto securities, is expected to significantly enhance the firm's client offerings.
Giovanni Galimberti and Raimondo Maggiore, co-heads of Bird & Bird in Italy, also highlight the alignment of Federico and Corrado's innovative approach with the firm’s culture of fostering innovation and delivering value. They anticipate that the new partners will greatly strengthen the firm’s Finance & Financial Regulation capabilities in Italy.
