Financing Transactions

Our highly-regarded banking and finance group combines legal expertise, a commercial approach and industry experience.

We act for all New Zealand trading banks, and regularly advise major banks, other financial institutions, corporates (including major listed companies), investment banks and funds across the Asia-Pacific region. We also act for central and local government bodies.

We provide advice on all secured and unsecured credit facilities. These range from bilateral loans to large multi-currency facilities and cross-border syndicated loans. Individual areas of specialisation include business, trade and industrial finance, property finance, construction and project finance (including public/private partnerships), asset finance, and leveraged and acquisition finance.

In addition, we advise on credit instruments, international trade finance, credit insurance and treasury risk management (including swaps, caps, and hedges).

Our banking and finance lawyers work collaboratively with specialists from other fields - such as our commercial, private equity, mergers and acquisitions, tax, and property law experts - to ensure our clients receive the best legal advice on all aspects of financing.
