Career

As the partner in charge of our Finance group in France and co-managing partner of our Casablanca office, I advise investment funds, banks, sponsors and public entities on the structuring, award and financing of projects in the energy, infrastructure and automotive sectors in Europe and Africa.

With nearly 30 years of experience in managing major projects and financing, I work on equity and debt financing transactions, with a strong public sector focus. I assist on all project and financing documents linked to development and project finance of large infrastructure, including public contracts or PPP-type global contracts and EPC (mainly FIDIC) and O&M contracts as well as all credit facility or investment documents in France, Europe and Africa in a variety of sectors.

My experience covers the structuring of PPP transactions, project finance, the creation of joint ventures (JVs), as well as advising on corporate and finance law and public and regulatory law. I have been involved in the energy (renewable energy, oil and gas), water, transport and telecommunications sectors since the start of my career, and also work in the mining sector, covering issues relating to the operation of mines and quarries. More recently, as part of the energy transition, I have been involved in issues relating to securing ores and materials critical to industry, the energy sector and the automotive sector. In particular, I have developed an activity to support players in the sector in manufacturing, recycling and logistics linked to the infrastructure required for the development of electric batteries.
