Noted for its ‘professionalism’ and ‘great knowledge of the financial market’, Jones Day is singled out for its strong credentials in the financing of large-scale renewable energy and infrastructure projects. In addition to project finance, the team has remained busy advising domestic and international financial institutions on refinancings, debt restructuring, acquisition and real estate finance. Practice head Javier López Antón often acts for lenders, underwriters and borrowers on an array of financing matters, including leveraged, project and asset-backed finance. Iván Martín-Barbón marries extensive experience in cross-border financing deals with in-depth knowledge of financial regulatory matters. Project finance is a key specialism for Fernando Lillo, who excels in transactions involving the energy and infrastructure sectors in Spain and Latin America. Sergio Cires is no longer at the firm.
