Client, Chambers
Ongoing regulatory and market changes are inevitable. We stay on top of how these might affect you and solve the issues they raise, researching trends and new technologies to give you the best advice.
We advise you on financing across borders, sectors, and products, and help you overcome the legal, commercial, and political constraints of the countries you do business in.
We’re a versatile team. Our 700+ finance lawyers are in the leading financial centers, from New York and London to Shanghai and Singapore. We advise on all types of domestic and international transactions, and of every size. We’ve acted for clients in new markets and on thousands of deals.
Clients say we’re commercially minded and come up with ideas that work for their businesses.
Inflation, and a sharp rise in interest rates, are keeping the financing market busy, as are not only an array of ever-increasing regulatory requirements, but also high levels of available capital in private equity and private debt arenas, as well as the rise of disruptive technologies in the financial sector. As a result, the environment in which you operate is also changing rapidly. In Germany, as well as in a global context.
In DLA Piper’s German financing group we don’t just follow current developments, we actively shape the market.
We advise a wide range of national and international companies, banks and other financial institutions, private equity and private debt funds, as well as issuers and borrowers on all types of financings. This includes advising on the structuring of financings, as well as on the drafting and negotiation of financing contracts. We also support established and emerging clients with banking and banking supervisory law, fintech, and ESG transactions, issues and projects.
In addition to our internationality and first-class legal expertise, our advice is based on a close cooperation with our colleagues in the areas of corporate law, tax law, energy, real estate, restructuring, and litigation. Our geographically and technically holistic approach allows us to recognize interrelationships and emerging developments early on, so we can develop reliable, innovative solutions to help you succeed.
