On the transactional side, the firm acts for lenders and borrowers in structured finance, syndicated loans, hybrid transactions, trade finance and in the funding of projects, including multi-source financings involving multilaterals and export credit agencies. M&A involving banking and payment institutions are another core area of activity for the team. Frederico Kerr Bullamah, ‘one of the most qualified and respected professionals in his field’, advises banks, investment funds, debtors and financial advisers on structured and corporate finance, debt restructuring and trade finance.
