Financing

We support our clients throughout the lifecycle of their capital structure, from initial acquisition to refinancing and – in many cases – exit, dealing with related treasury requirements as they arise in the meantime.

Our team sets itself apart by focussing on client relationships rather than on particular financing practice areas. This allows us to deploy smaller, but more versatile, teams that draw expertise from our DCM, securitisation, derivatives and tax specialists to deliver a service that is carefully tailored to the needs of our clients.

Acquisition and Leveraged Finance

Our team provides excellence in execution and commercially focused advice on acquisition financings and refinancings across all industry sectors to corporates, financial sponsors, banks, direct lending funds and strategic investors.
more

Debt Capital Markets

We advise on the full spectrum of debt securities both on a standalone basis and under existing or newly established debt issuance programmes.
more

Derivatives

We provide regulatory and transactional advice on the full range of OTC and exchange-traded derivatives.
more

Leasing and Asset Finance

Our team regularly advises on asset finance products, including finance lease arrangements, tax leases and sale and lease back arrangements.
more

Corporate and investment grade lending

We are recognised as a leader in corporate and investment grade lending with a unique and comprehensive understanding of the market.
more

Projects and Project Finance

Our outstanding practice covers energy, infrastructure, water and waste, transport and telecommunications projects.
more

Regulatory capital

We advise banks, insurers and asset managers on regulatory capital requirements, including the structuring and issuance of capital instruments.
more

Securitisation and Structured Finance

Our team advises on public and private transactions involving a range of asset-backed products covering every major asset class.
