Maples Group‘s practice is ‘market-leading in the structured finance and securitisation space in Ireland‘, and is equally strong in handling cross-border work in the capital markets space. The firm is widely recognised for its expertise in advising on CLOs, and the Dublin-based group is often instructed by US, UK, Irish and other EU managers on matters relating to CLO platforms. The department is also prolific in non-performing loan (NPL)-related issues, warehouse lending and repackaging programmes, and is well placed to advise global asset and specialist investment managers on creating specialist Irish SPV issuer platforms.
