As well as its core focus on private equity sponsor-led leveraged finance deals, Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP also maintains a not insignificant corporate borrower financing practice which benefits from the firm’s extensive knowledge of debt products throughout the capital structure, both through the syndicated loans and high yield bond markets. Shahpur Kabraji is key to much of this work, including for sponsor-backed portfolio companies on large-scale refinancings, as well as some large-cap lending transactions for institutional investment-grade corporate clients of the firm. For lender work, Hadrien Servais who splits his time between the firm’s Brussels and London offices, provides ‘commercially driven and solutions-oriented’ advice to credit funds and investment banks on syndicated credit facilities and debt financing solutions spanning all market cycles. Nicholas Shaw heads the team.
