This section has emerged from the existing Chambers coverage in sections such as UK-Wide Trade Finance, with trade and development financing arrangements a particular area of focus. The section is also open to other areas of finance, including acquisition and leveraged finance, asset finance and reserve-based lending. As with all Africa-Wide sections, law firms should be able to demonstrate a breadth of coverage, with matters originating in multiple African nations. Greatest credit is typically given to law firms operating in international, coordinating counsel roles, although law firms with high-performing domestic offices across the continent may also be eligible for a ranking. Note that this section is intended to be distinct from Chambers’ Africa-Wide Project Finance coverage, and project finance work should not be submitted here. Instead, please provide this work in the submissions for Africa-Wide Projects & Energy.
