 Representative Transaction
For example, we are currently advising the Overseas Private Investment Corporation in connection with its $60 million loan to a special purpose vehicle controlled by an affiliate of a well-known fund manager. The special purpose vehicle will use the proceeds of the loan, together with equity raised from institutional investors, to invest in both green-field and existing power generation, transmission, and distribution assets in Latin America.This transaction has required expertise in traditional New York secured lending law, and has also involved issues of issues relating to Cayman Islands law, subscription loans to private equity funds, market practices in the funds management field, letter of credit law, anti-money laundering law, and securities law, among others. |

Representative Transaction
Another example of the work we do in the finance area is a proposed borrowing by a privately owned manufacturing company from the International Finance Corporation. The borrower was a Cayman Islands company, controlled by investors based in the Republic of China and with an international management team. The borrower had a large manufacturing plant in the People's Republic of China, and sought medium-term debt in order to expand that facility and to begin a roll-up of other companies in the same industry in other regions in China. Because the borrower was planning to go public within a few years, and the IFC's proposed lending package included both debt and equity, the transaction required an understanding of mergers and acquisitions issues as well as secured lending. In addition, as the World Bank Group has its own way of doing business, the transaction drew upon our knowledge of those procedures and legal requirements. |
