Cayman Considerations In Financing Transactions

The benefits of the Cayman Islands as an offshore jurisdiction through which to conduct financing transactions, and of the flexibility and ease of use of Cayman vehicles as participants in such financings, are well documented: the Cayman Islands' tax-neutral status; its political stability; the developed, English-based legal system; supporting infrastructure and high-quality service providers; the flexible and commercial nature of its legislation; and its adherence to international standards of compliance.

Cayman vehicles – particularly exempted companies and exempted limited partnerships (the latter especially in the private equity fund finance space) – feature prominently across the spectrum of financing transactions. We regularly act on behalf of lenders and obligors on all types of financings, including acquisition finance, structured finance, aircraft and vessel financings, and fund financing matters.
