    Priorities for International Banks 2020
    2020-02-05

    Introduction

    After a turbulent year in British politics, the UK is now clearly charting a momentous course out of the European Union.

    Leaving the European Union is likely to have far-reaching implications, particularly for International Banks who have traditionally used London as a gateway for accessing financial services markets in the rest of Europe. What will happen to single market access in the long term remains to be seen.

    Restructuring: When is the right time?
    2020-02-17

    HEADLINES

    • Default levels remain historically low at 1 per cent to 2 per cent
    • Prevalence of cov-lite loans in Europe may be concealing some underperformance, but there are no conventional triggers for lenders to act

    Despite concerns that the economic cycle is peaking, and the impact of geopolitical and trade volatility on corporate earnings, leveraged finance default rates show little sign of rising during the next 12 months.

    Which law applies when determining the validity of an assignment of receivables cross-border?
    2020-01-23

    The validity of an assignment of receivables cross-border depends on the law that applies to the assignment.

    What might amount to a valid assignment in one jurisdiction, does not mean, that it is valid in another and where there are competing claims to the receivables and competing jurisdictions, the question of which law applies and therefore whether there has been a valid assignment significantly affects the ability of the assignee to rely on the assignment.

    Fund Finance Market Review -Trends and Developments in the Subscription Credit Facility and Fund Finance Markets - Fall 2019
    2019-10-22

    The first half of 2019 continues a long growth rally for the fund finance market, with fund finance deal volume at Mayer Brown significantly up from last year. This growth occurred despite a three-year decline in the number of final fund closings.1 This apparent contradiction can be explained both by the penetration of traditional subscription credit facilities into a broader range of fund types and the diversification of fund finance product offerings in the market (including a notable uptick in the number of hybrid facility and net asset value credit facility closings).

    What impact does the EU restructuring directive have on debt finance?
    2019-06-28

    The EU Directive on restructuring and insolvency was published in the OJEU on Wednesday. Members states have until 17 July 2020 to implement it, and this includes the UK as it stands: the UK has much – but not all – of it already. The UK Government has its own plans for reforming insolvency law of course, including to re-introduce Crown Preference. It is mostly about creating a rescue framework.
