Matthieu Duplat > Jones Day > Brussels, Belgium > Lawyer Profile

Close connections with the firm’s international offices enable the team at Jones Day to handle both domestic and cross-border financing matters. The group has close longstanding relations with major financial institutions and also serves a growing roster of corporate borrowers, with a particular reputation for advising on private equity-related acquisition financing matters as well as high-value debt issuances. Financial disputes and regulatory matters are also key areas of focus for the team, which is led by a consortium of experienced partners: Ferdinand Brughmans is a key contact for leveraged lending work, while Matthieu Duplat focuses on debt and equity capital markets, and Michèle Grégoire chiefly handles restructuring mandates.
