Banking and Finance

Our lawyers understand the regulatory environment in which our clients operate and the diverse range of financing structures now available.

We represent lenders, ensuring that their security and other requirements are satisfied, and support borrowers through the potentially daunting task of negotiating the lengthy documentation that has become market standard in this area.

Our team understands the need to secure the right financing package and to lay the platform for a successful ongoing relationship between borrowers and lenders. To this end, we adopt a collaborative and cooperative approach to the negotiation process. Where problems do occur, our team can assist in the renegotiation or restructuring of debt, with a view to preserving the business and protecting shareholder value.

Our banking and finance team acts for new entrants to the financial services market, helping them to establish their new businesses and ensuring regulatory compliance. We also represent clients facing regulatory investigations or similar challenges.

Partners in the team have extensive international experience, working with clients including both domestic and foreign banks, investment firms and other companies.
