About

Provided by Allen & Gledhill LLP

Our Securitisation & Derivatives team is well known for its capability and track record to advise on a wide range of innovative financial products and structures. These include the full range of structured products as well as over-the-counter (“OTC”) and exchange-traded derivatives (which may be documented using International Swaps and Derivatives Association (“ISDA”) documentation, other industry standard documentation or bespoke agreements).

We provide advice on the relevant legal, regulatory, compliance and tax issues which arise in relation to these financial products and structures, and are actively involved in the structuring and documentation development of such products and structures (including assets securitisations, covered bonds and collateralised funding structures). We also advice on and document derivatives transactions for structured securitised or other capital markets products and related hedging arrangements.
