Siddhartha Sivaramakrishnan > McDermott Will & Emery UK LLP > London, England > Lawyer Profile

At McDermott Will & Emery UK LLP, ‘the team’s work ethic is very strong and you can be sure you’ll be getting a good work product‘. The firm joins the ranking on the strength of its work for financial institutions as trustees in major debt transactions. Practice head Ranajoy Basu, who also leads the firm’s India desk, is a key adviser on impact financings and sustainability-linked bonds. Basu and Siddhartha Sivaramakrishnan, who works in both London and Singapore, recently acted for Basileia Investment Holdings UK Limited with an English law review of a ZAR1bn MTN Programme and the first series of bonds issued under the programme. Priya Taneja also plays a key role in the practice and her knowledge of emerging markets transactions a major boon. Clients note that she ‘throws herself headfirst into her work and is able to work through problems in a way that benefits the client‘. The broader practice continues to expand, with the addition of Vladimir Maly from Morrison Foerster in July 2023, bringing extensive experience in equity-linked capital market transactions.
