Gleiss Lutz
Gleiss Lutz' advice is particularly tailored to corporates, including assistance with issuing bonds - especially those with conversion and ESG components - as well as with bond restructuring and EMTN programs; however, the practice acts for banks as well. Thanks to its collaboration with the London office, which opened at the beginning of 2022, the practice is also well equipped for high-yield advice. Kai Arne Birke leads the team and has expertise in syndicated financing transactions and bond restructuring.
