PPT Legal provides ‘business-oriented’ advice to a fairly balanced mix of borrowers and lenders across a range of new money and refinancing transactions. The maritime sector continues to inform much of the deal flow, with local and international shipping companies (including Canfornav) and banks (Aegean Baltic Bank) regularly instructing the firm across a myriad domestic and cross-border transactions. Dimitris Manolopoulos became firmwide managing partner in March 2024.
