Dentons has significant presence across all CEE markets, with leading Banking and Finance teams operating in Poland, Hungary, Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Romania. Clients can count on over 70 banking and finance lawyers working in, and dedicated to, the CEE region, making Dentons among the largest and strongest international finance practices in Central Europe.


Our Banking and Finance lawyers handle many of the region’s largest and most sophisticated transactions. Our partners, including various English-qualified finance specialists, are accustomed to managing complex multi-jurisdictional transactions with international and local lawyers combining in teams across our Dentons jurisdictions. Similar to previous years, renewable energy finance continues its advance across Central Europe, and because project and infrastructure finance is among our specializations, we have advised on many of these financings. We have also focused on a variety of financial restructurings and have closed major transactions in various CEE countries. Green and sustainable finance is now part of everyday vocabulary, along with credit facilities and real estate finance.
