We advise on a broad range of banking and finance transactions, from individual lending transactions to loan portfolio transfers and regulatory challenges affecting institutions’ loan books. One team acts on both new loans and on their restructuring, should the borrower become distressed. Advising on both Dutch and English law from Amsterdam, we act for banks, credit funds, equity sponsors and companies.

  • Ability to respond very quickly under pressure.
  • Networking skills.
  • Ability to influence using appropriate techniques.

Characteristics

  • Inspires confidence, drawing on own and others’ experience.
  • Innovative and resilient.
  • Team player and relationship builder.
  • Motivates others.

Our offer

  • Being part of a leading global firm with access to colleagues in 20 other jurisdictions to address legal issues and business development opportunities
