Project & Real Estate finance
The banking and finance team have been involved in numerous high-profile projects assisting both borrowers and lenders with the development of large residential projects, landmark office buildings and new industrial facilities, including the provision of on-going operating funds. We have significant experience, gained during the boom years of the Romanian real estate market. We were also by our clients’ side when the global finance and real estate markets took a hit.
We are excited to see the return of steady and healthy growth in the market and we are looking forward to many new and exciting opportunities ahead.
Our Relevant Experience
Acquisition Finance
We have a clear and in-depth understanding of the successful life cycle of a business and know that, from a certain point onwards, the founder's exit may be just what a company needs to secure its growth and achieve a greater degree of sophistication.
We are skilled at guiding our clients, including international banks and investors, through the complex legal process required for the successful completion of a funded acquisition. The M&A market is predicted to grow rapidly and exits from several highly successful local and regional businesses are expected. At the opposite end of the market, the number of start-ups in Romania is also growing rapidly, and several business accelerators have many of these new start-ups in their sights for investment followed by high-profit margin exits.
Our Relevant Experience
Finance Restructuring
Having represented lenders and borrowers alike, we have been involved in the restructuring of more than a few credit arrangements of companies facing financial distress, helping many to avoid imminent default. When assisting in financial restructuring projects, we seek to find common ground between lenders and borrowers to remove the possibility of default and the resulting insolvency and, instead, find a mutually satisfactory resolution that avoids the pain that insolvency brings with it.
Our Relevant Experience
Non-performing Loans
Our experience and involvement in the financial sector supports the premise that there is often still life after death.
We have provided third-party investors and former owners of defunct businesses with real opportunities to make profitable investments by reviving projects that would otherwise have become just another lost opportunity. We have the knowledge, creativity and energy to take on NPL projects and take them to a successful conclusion.
