dms Management Ltd. (DMS) continues expanding its global presence with the opening of an office in São Paulo, Brazil: dms Management (Brasil) Assessoria Empresarial Ltda. The establishment of the Brazil office marks the firm's foray into South America and is an important part of the firm's global strategy and commitment to localized client service and innovative growth.
