Services
Our banking and finance services include the following areas:
Banking regulations
Banking regulations are constantly shifting and evolving across the globe. We provide up-to-date regulatory and legal advice in the banking sector across multiple important offshore banking jurisdictions.
We help our clients to understand the regulatory and compliance requirements for establishing new banks and financial institutions in their preferred jurisdiction, and help determine the best strategy to suit their individual needs.
We also offer more general legal advice pertaining to offshore banking, including important issues related to confidentiality, compliance, taxation, and data protection.
Structured finance and securitisation
We understand that the financial institutions we serve have complex and specialised financial needs, for which conventional financial products are not always adequate. Therefore, we offer advice on finding the most innovative and trusted structured finance and securitisation vehicles available in various offshore jurisdictions.
The right structure is not always available in your home country, so we help our clients to optimise their financing structure by making use of unique opportunities which may only be available in favourable offshore environments.
Our range of structured finance and securitisation vehicles which we advise on include covered bonds, high yielding bonds, debt financing, secured loans, asset-backed securities, and many more.

- Lending, including structured loans
