We are debt finance experts and can support you at all levels of the growth of your business, from raising venture debt to negotiating a complex syndicated cross-border financing agreement

Our banking and finance solicitors have acted on the full range of debt quanta from £100,000 to €14 billion and have senior experience gained at some of the best City firms.

We advise sponsors, borrowers and lenders on all of the principal debt finance transaction types: acquisition finance, project finance and real estate finance.

We can support borrowers at all stages of the growth of their business from raising venture debt to large syndicated facilities.

Our debt finance team works hand in hand with our corporate and tax lawyers, and a key feature of any deal is that a borrower’s debt finance will dovetail with its capital structure and work with its future fundraising plans.

We can also assist with a wide range of corporate treasury work, from advising on intra group loans and cash pooling arrangements to drafting  working capital facilities.
