As we near our 10th Anniversary celebrations at CM Advocates LLP, these are some of the most important lessons that I have come to embrace: 1. Don't try to be better; be different. In other words; always think differently; and often inverse. 2. You should be ruthless when it come to execution. Concerning this point, I wish to borrow these two quotes: (a) “Ideas are easy. Execution is everything.” – John Doerr (b) “Strategy without execution is hallucination.” – Thomas Edison 3. Always be bold and courageous. Never give room to fear or self doubt. In the words of Peter Drucker, “The best way to predict the future is to create it." 4. Resilience and agility are critical and indispensable skills or attributes in life and in business; therefore, cultivate them. By these I mean that we should always be ready to respond quickly to any disruptions or change. On this point, here is my favourite quote from the father of the rainbow nation, Nelson Mandela: "Do not judge me by my success, judge me by how many times I fell down and got back up again." And this too: "When you have exhausted all possibilities, remember this: you haven't."~ Thomas A. Edison

When I launched SOF 10 years ago, I never would have imagined that today I’d be writing this. Back then, during client meetings, the first question was always, “Who or what is SOF?” After the meeting, the only positive feedback was usually about the company’s name: "Substance Over Form" — “Thanks, but no, we’re already working with the Big 4. Personally though, I like your name!” Today, our incredible team at SOF creates value every day, producing thousands of regulatory reports annually for 120+ institutional clients worldwide. Our articles, presentations, and contributions to industry working groups and associations are making a significant impact across the industry. Now, the question is no longer, “What is SOF?” but rather, “When can we start?” Our clients trust us because "Substance Over Form" isn’t just a catchy name created by a marketing agency — it's a way of working and an attitude. It’s a value we’ve never compromised. No BS, no beating around the bush. Just straightforward services and content that deliver clear value to the client, without getting distracted by the packaging. The past 10 years have been the best of my life so far, and I’d like to thank everyone who made it so special — our unbelievable team and our clients, who inspire us to innovate and keep pushing forward. I’m looking forward to the next 10 years with all of you!

Looking back on the last four decades of Advent serves as such a powerful reminder of just how far we’ve come on our journey.    I’m proud of what we have accomplished together in this time, particularly our growth in Latin America, but I also believe this is just the beginning of what’s to come.    Latin America’s economic growth trajectory is at an exciting point, and we are remarkably well positioned with our deep local sector expertise, vast network, and global reach.

🎉 Happy 9th Anniversary!🎉 Last Friday, we celebrated nine incredible years—years that have taken us from broad macroeconomic perspectives all the way into detailed industry-level insights.
