Belgrade - Associate office
Clyde & Co’s unique association with Serbian law office Mujezinović makes us one of the few international law firms able to help multinational businesses investing in the Balkan region. The Belgrade team, active since 2001, currently consists of 10 lawyers and has an in-depth understanding of the local, legal and cultural complexities.
Serbia is one of Europe’s fastest growing economies, having recently entered into the Central European Free Trade Agreement. It has Europe’s lowest corporate tax rate at 10% and offers a 10 year corporate profit tax holiday for investment and state subsidies and is expected to sign the Stabilisation and Association Agreement with EU in the near future. The Russian market of 150 million people is easily accessible, and our office is well-placed to help our clients navigate business challenges throughout the Balkan region.
Our leading corporate and commercial practice advises on:
- Corporate finance
- Competition
- Construction
- Employment
- Insurance
- Intellectual property
- International trade
- M&A
- Privatisation
- Property
- Real estate
- Restructuring

Our Belgrade team advises on high-profile, cutting edge cases and we represent some of the leading players in the region. We have advised the Serbian Government and Privatisation Agency on a number of privatisation and restructuring procedures. In addition, we are actively assisting many major international companies on how to invest and operate in the Serbian market. We also regularly advise organisations such as the EBRD and other government and international bodies.
Plus major local and international corporations, institutional strategic and financial investors and financial services companies and banks. The team works closely with Clyde & Co's Russia and Central Asia groups in London as well as other external lawyers in the Balkans, to deliver an integrated service to businesses investing in the region.
