A broad range of specialisms characterises the offering across banking, finance and capital markets at Ogier, a team that acts in major matters across fund finance, restructuring and insolvency, structured finance, equity and debt capital markets, asset finance, and CSX listings. Its fund finance work stands out for a combined offering between the firm's Cayman and the Luxembourg offices, while another differentiator is the firm's expertise acting for clients based in Latin America. Practice head James Heinicke excels in fund finance matters and is notable for the aforementioned Latin America knowledge, and Mark Santangeli has established himself across the spectrum of finance matters. Bradley Kruger is the corporate law practice head and expert across transactional matters, with Cynthia Anandajayasekeram a further name to note from the corporate team. Tommy Tuohy and Jasjit Grewal both receive client praise for 'exceptional service', and Laura O'Byrne regularly supports the partners.
