Drawing upon considerable strength-in-depth from London, as well as across its international network of offices, Baker McKenzie is well-positioned to advise lenders on cross-border syndicated loan transactions. In this context, the firm is particularly adept at handling financings with an emerging markets nexus and as well as having excellent ties with commercial banks including HSBC and Standard Chartered, it is also well versed in working alongside development banks in multi-source financings. Luka Lightfoot is noted for this work, including a considerable volume of project and structured trade financings in relation to Africa (particularly within Angola). Team head Nick Tostivin is also recommended.
