Arrangers and issuers rely on our experience with all types of bond issues. Our particular strength lies both in advising on specific “German” products (covered bonds, profit participation certificates and promissory notes) and in advising on exotic forms. In relation to all these products, we work closely with our colleagues in the areas of tax and regulatory law.

Our specialised experience extends across our key areas of advice: financial institutions; energy, infrastructure and resources; transport; technology; life sciences and healthcare; and consumer markets.
