Banking & Finance

We advise across the full spectrum of banking and finance transactions, our team acts for banks, private banks, non-bank lenders, funds, family offices and sophisticated investors. Our practice is built on deep technical expertise and senior-led delivery, providing clients with clear, commercial advice that reflects both market standards and real-world risk.

Private credit remains a core focus of our practice. We work closely with non-bank lenders, credit funds and family offices to structure, document and execute transactions with speed and certainty. At the same time, we support institutional lenders and private banks in delivering tailored financing solutions across corporate, real estate and specialty asset classes.

What distinguishes our team is experience. Our matters are led by senior, experienced Banking & Finance lawyers who bring a detailed understanding of credit risk, documentation, enforcement and value add at various stages of the transactional journey. This means established lenders receive precise, efficient execution aligned with market expectations, while new entrants to the lending market benefit from practical guidance on structuring, regulatory settings and risk management from the outset.

We take a pragmatic approach to documentation, balancing robust lender protections with commercial outcomes that support deal flow and borrower relationships. We have invested in technology and a systemised workflow for lending transactions, allowing us to minimise turnaround time and letting our skilled lawyers add value where the deal or the client needs it. This technology allows our clients to interact with us to obtain updates not only on one matter but all matters at the click of a button. It also gives other stakeholders such as brokers access for updates through the life of a transaction.
