About

Provided by Gedik & Eraksoy Avukatlık Ortaklığı

The past few years have been the most challenging in the history of the international financial markets and have required fresh thinking as the markets adjust to continually changing economic, political and regulatory conditions. Renowned for our intellectual rigour, our banking, finance and capital markets lawyers draw on deep product expertise and regularly work alongside our regulatory, litigation and other specialists – particularly important in light of recent market conditions – to develop innovative solutions for our clients, often incorporating complex financing techniques that lead the industry.

Gedik & Eraksoy’s Banking & Finance and capital markets team is led by Umut Gurgey and includes 11 other dedicated fee-earners. The team works on a standalone basis on Turkish law matters, and exclusively in conjunction with Allen & Overy’s Istanbul team. Gedik & Eraksoy and Allen & Overy have worked in association since 2012. This integrated capability, which we call our ‘global-local’ strategy, is highly valued by our Turkish and international clients alike.
