I have eighteen years' experience in advising on financing transactions. My practice covers loans and debt capital market instruments including acquisition/project financings, real estate transactions, asset-backed securities and structured covered bonds, loan notes and corporate bonds. I represent banks, debt funds, insurance and other financial institutions as well as companies and real estate investors (including family offices), most of which are international players. 

I manage complex transactions and cooperates seamlessly with auditors, tax advisors, software engineers and other parties involved. Having worked on both borrower/issuer and lender/investor sides, I have a deep understanding of the interests of all parties involved in a financing situation, including their (factual and regulatory) restrictions.
