Lawyer Rankings

Austria > Capital markets

Operating across the full range of capital market transactions, Binder Grösswang has a particularly strong track record of advising on capital increases and bond issuances. Praised for his ‘high level of technical knowledge’, Florian Khol is sought out by national and international issuers, banks, listed companies and investment funds, with his areas of expertise including cross-border equity as well as debt and hybrid capital markets transactions. The latter also represents a specialism of Austria and New York-qualified expert Stephan Heckenthaler, while Tibor Fabian focuses primarily on debt capital markets, as does Stefan Frank, who also offers proficiency in fund-related issues.
