More informationMore information

The London office of Hogan Lovells International LLP is particularly well known for advising trustees and agents on DCM deals, though the team advises on a broad range of transactions in close collaboration with colleagues  across the firm's global network. The firm has both English and US law capability in London, as well as specialist trustee expertise. Indeed, practice head Kit Johnson is regarded as one of the market's leading advisers to corporate trustees on debt and structured finance instruments. Key partner Andrew Carey is highly experienced in international debt offerings, including securities programmes, corporate, and sovereign bonds, and he frequently acts for trustees in bond restructurings. Johnson recently advised Citibank in its trustee and agency capacities on a €700m sustainability-linked bond offering by Faurecia S.A. Carey recently acted for automotive safety supplier Autoliv in the update of its €3bn EMTN programme.
