A complex debt restructuring requires a combination of a strategic thinking and an understanding of the commercial and legal issues that are involved.
Our award-winning debt restructuring team is well known and regarded for representing large corporate borrowers as lead counsel in complex debt restructurings, in particular within the Indonesian market.
We have experience with both court-supervised restructurings, including PKPU proceedings in Indonesia and out of court consensual arrangements with creditors. We have been called upon by clients to restructure all their debts simultaneously, including syndicated bank loans and international bonds. We work closely with trustees (BNYM, Citibank) and clearing systems (DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream) for amending and/or exchanging existing securities and the issuance of new securities.
Working closely with our London and Hong Kong based colleagues, we also offer insolvency advice and represent parties in cross border disputes arising out of financial distress. We have specialists in asset recovery, cyber and white-collar crime. We frequently use freezing orders, search and seize orders and disclosure orders to achieve our clients’ objectives. Our work is underpinned by our in-house investigatory and eDiscovery capabilities.
