Financial institutions

Fladgate has considerable experience of advising a number of UK and overseas financial institutions on property finance, acquisition finance, structured finance, debt recovery, receiverships, administrations and liquidations, regulatory issues, litigation and dispute resolution.

Our real estate finance team has a long-established reputation of responding to the requirements of financial institutions within the tight timescales imposed on them by their borrowers.

A key focus of our corporate practice is advising clients on mergers, acquisitions and joint ventures, both domestic and cross-border. An integral part of this work is the financing of transactions and we have acted for banks and other providers of finance, as well as borrowers.

Our corporate restructuring and insolvency group enjoys a reputation for providing practical solutions in contentious and non-contentious situations involving financially distressed businesses. They advise insolvency practitioners, banks, other lending institutions, stakeholders, troubled companies, directors and individuals on a variety of corporate insolvency related issues.

Our financial services group advises UK and overseas based clients on regulatory matters, fund establishment, transactional advice and dispute resolution. In addition, the team works closely with our investment funds group in connection with the UK requirements for establishing and marketing collective investment funds in the UK.

Irrespective of the particular type of advice required, we have a good understanding of the requirements of the financial institution sector and are able to offer a cost effective and efficient service.
