Jointly led by Chris Whiteley and Kingsley Ong, the emerging team at CMS provides a comprehensive suite of offering to a range of stakeholders spanning the breadth of derivatives and structured finance matters. While encompassing some mandates involving new capital, especially within the securitisation realm, Ong’s distinctive forte lies in navigating downturn scenarios, effectively combining acumen in restructuring with a profound understanding of structured finance products, therefore providing ‘well-considered and commercial advice’. Splitting his time between Hong Kong and London, Whiteley dedicates his time to a wide spectrum of derivatives, ranging from conventional hedging to intricate funding transactions. Counsel Simon Barrell ably supports the team, handling complex structured finance and OTC derivatives matters.
