Our lawyers have the expertise to advise on any form of financing, and clients often call on us for advice on innovative deals and structures which start off being ground-breaking but go on to become standard practice in the market.
Our exceptional market knowledge stems from our broad client base and the experience we’ve gained advising on some of the landmark transactions in Romania in recent years. Whether we’re advising domestic or international borrowers and financiers, this knowledge means we can help our clients with all types of transactions and offer continuing support throughout the lifecycle of a deal.
The range of clients we advise in the loans market is unmatched and our workload includes large-scale structured financings, corporate mainstream lending, acquisition financings, and refinancings.
Beyond the deal itself, clients also call on our non-transactional expertise. We help borrowers and lenders deal with financial regulatory issues, restructurings and a broad range of corporate and commercial issues.
