We advise on all aspects of banking business from general financing work (real estate, subscription line, asset backed, aircraft) through cross-border financing and large loan portfolio restructurings to the establishment and regulation of banks in our domestic markets to include complimentary advisory services such as wealth management, employment, cybersecurity and data protection and regulatory issues.
Our close ties to the City of London, New York and other major financial centres see us acting on transactions at every level of size and complexity. We are at the forefront of regulatory developments in our industry sectors and take a lead role in shaping changes and revisions to banking law and practice in the jurisdictions in which we advise.
The size of our global banking practice enables us to scale each team to the size of the transaction or case, whether acting as lead lawyers, as the offshore counsel or as a broader team across legal disciplines and jurisdictions. We are appointed directly by our clients for international banking transactions and cases, often working with onshore legal teams, who require expert advice on the laws of Bermuda, the British Virgin Islands, the Cayman Islands, Guernsey and Jersey.
We are ranked as a top tier offshore law firm for banking and finance work and our clients include the majority of the world's leading global banks and financial institutions, intermediaries, investment banks, institutional and HNWI borrowers, arrangers and underwriters.
