CMS Holborn Asia‘s practice is led by director Daniel Tan, who is a rounded practitioner with especially extensive experience in leveraged and acquisition finance; Tan has built out the firm’s presence in private credit, particularly venture debt transactions which tap into the firm’s focus on the tech sector. Trade finance and asset finance are also core elements of the practice, which acts for both lenders and borrowers, with a slightly heavier leaning towards borrowers. The department is active in transactions throughout Southeast Asia and beyond. Senior associate Javier Yong also impresses clients.
