Up and Coming

Magali Béraud enters the rankings this year on the back of strong market commentary. She has expertise in LBO unitranche financing.

Magali was really brilliant. She's built a strong relationship with the clients based on trust.

Magali had to step in an emergency situation in one of our legal processes. Despite the tight timing, the transition and the execution of the legal process was seamless and best-in-class.

 I am very satisfied with Magali's advice on complex LBO financing.
