Deacons’ finance lawyers acts for borrowers in a wide range of transactions.
Working for borrowers requires particular skills. Documents often have to be extensively tailored to meet the precise requirements of a borrower. It is crucial to understand where compromises can be made by both parties and where they cannot, and approach negotiations with a mixture of tact and firmness.
Unlike many of its competitors, Deacons’ banking team works for both banks and borrowers, so we understand the concerns of both sides. With our pragmatic, deal-orientated approach we always aim to be commercial on behalf of our clients to help deals progress quickly and efficiently. However, we will negotiate tenaciously when something is not in a client’s interest.
Our lawyers have represented borrowers in a wide range of financing transactions, from consumer loans, through plain vanilla deals and multi-billion HKD syndicated loans, to specialised trade, project, and asset and acquisition finance deals in a wide range of industry sectors.
If you would like to know more about how we can help you with your fundraising requirements, we would be delighted to hear from you.
