Clifford Chance

Clifford Chance continues to be a top address for structured finance and advises international clients on (synthetic) securitisation transactions, risk transfers, special financing, loan portfolio transactions and the implementation of securitisation platforms as well as their regulatory classification. This is complemented by expertise in asset tokenisation, among other matters. Clients - including asset managers, sponsors, banks and fintechs - particularly benefit from its close cooperation with offices in Luxembourg and London. Sectorally, the practice has recently been particularly active in the energy, infrastructure and fintech industries. Oliver Kronat (securitisation of trade, mail order, leasing and loan receivables; structuring of ABCP conduit programs) heads the practice, which also includes senior counsel Kerstin Schaepersmann (synthetic securitisations and other risk transfer transactions) and senior counsel Hannes Deusch (asset-based financing).
