About

Provided by Lipa Meir & Co

Our Banking & Finance department particularly stands out for our central role advising leading banking institutions, insurance groups, acquisition groups, as well as large borrowers, in complex financing transactions. We have been an instrumental player in the field of financing, representing leading Israeli lending institutions in financings totalling over NIS 11 billion in the span of the past six years. We regularly act for consortia of lenders in providing loans in excess of NIS 1 billion, which are often among the largest and most complex financing transactions in the country. Within an extensive practice, clients benefit from our strong and unique grasp of more niche areas, such as True Sale opinions, while we also provide advice in relation to credit insurance, a necessary product in factoring and financing transactions and a unique practice of the firm.
