About

Provided by Baker McKenzie

We are at the forefront of advising high-profile international financial industry and tech clients, including PayPal, Checkout, Revolut, the Chinese Financial Futures Exchange, GoFundMe, Sony, Klarna and TikTok. In this area, we are observing an overall trend that fintechs tend to enter the Austrian market without any form of physical presence. Hence, being part of the global Baker McKenzie network gives us a key advantage over our local Austrian competitors due to increased visibility to large international players. We deliver seamless cross-border and Austrian services in the areas of financing transactions, regulatory advice and restructuring work that sets us apart from local competitors.


Our in-depth knowledge in respect to high-volume local financings is highly appreciated and sought after and our team is regularly mandated by high-profile Austrian and international banks as well as corporate borrowers in relation to financing projects.


Our advanced use of technology in transactions sets us apart, e.g., artificial intelligence-enhanced tools for legal project management and document production, taking advantage of being part of one of the most sophisticated law firms in terms of technology and innovation.
