The Budapest office of Dentons has announced that Balazs Csuday, former Ambassador of Hungary, has joined its Regulatory practice as Senior Counsel. 

According to Dentons, "Csuday has considerable experience in representing and advising the most senior levels of the Hungarian Government, Hungarian and multinational corporations, and the European Union, in various international contexts. He was previously Director, Public Sector and Government Relations, at PwC in Budapest. Prior to that, he served in the Hungarian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, where he was Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary with the Permanent Mission of Hungary to the UN and Other International Organizations in Vienna. Also, as ambassador, he was responsible for opening the Hungarian Embassy in Quito, Ecuador."

Csuday was educated at the Faculty of Law at Eotvos Lorand University, the Diplomatic Academy of Complutense University in Madrid, and the School of Law at Fordham University, New York.

Istvan Reczicza, Hungary Managing Partner at Dentons, said, “It is a pleasure and an honor to welcome Balazs Csuday to our team.
