FTI Consulting, Inc. (NYSE: FCN) today announced the appointment
of Veronica Irastorza as a Senior Managing Director in the
Litigation & Disputes Resolution practice within the firm’s
Economic Consulting segment.
Ms. Irastorza joins FTI Consulting with more than 20 years of
experience supporting clients with issues related to competition,
regulation, economics of contracts, markets, damages, valuations,
disputes and arbitrations, primarily in the energy sector.
“As energy investment continues to grow in Latin America,
political and regulatory changes in an industry that is
transitioning worldwide are resulting in a growing number of
disputes,” said Dr. Jose Alberro, a Senior Managing Director in the
Litigation & Dispute Resolution practice and Head of
International Arbitration for Latin America at FTI Consulting. “I’m
confident that Veronica’s experience in navigating these complex
issues will be a great benefit to our clients as they seek expert
economic counsel to address their business challenges.”
Most recently, Ms. Irastorza was a Principal at the Brattle
Group. Prior to that position, she was an Associate Director at
NERA Economic Consulting and also served as the Undersecretary of
Planning and Energy Transition in Mexico, where she developed
Mexico’s National Energy Strategy and coordinated the official
long-term energy outlooks. Prior to that she was Deputy Director of
Planning for Pemex Gas, Mexico’s national gas company.
Commenting on her appointment, Ms. Irastorza said, “The energy
sector is undergoing a profound transformation, confronting
unprecedented risks and challenges. Against this backdrop, I look
forward to providing our clients with a range of economic analyses
to support their strategic planning, regulatory changes, antitrust
issues and dispute resolutions.”
Ms. Irastorza’s hiring builds on the continued growth of the
Litigation & Dispute Resolution practice and follows the
addition of Senior Managing Directors Dr. Blanca Perea in Miami,
Mr. Leonardo Florencio in São Paulo and Dr. Alberro in Washington,
D.C. The team joins a growing practice of experts across Canada,
the United States and Latin America led by Dr. Randal Heeb. The
growth of this team underpins FTI Consulting’s unique capabilities
to support clients across the globe as they require complex
economic analysis to solve their dispute-related business
issues.
