Our lawyers have domestic and international expertise and experience in structuring, negotiating, documenting and advising on the full range of debt, equity, equity-linked, asset-backed, credit-linked, hybrid and derivative products available in the New Zealand, Australian, US, European and Asian capital markets.

We can quickly assemble locally qualified cross-border specialists in numerous jurisdictions around the world through the other offices in the Minter Ellison Legal Group.

We advise insurers, underwriters, guarantors, investors, trustees and financial institutions, specialised lenders, corporate originators, and swap counterparties across the range of products.

Our practice also includes the issue of prospectuses for public equity and debt offerings within New Zealand and overseas.

Securitisation

 

Our securitisation team works at the cutting edge with financial institutions, investment banks and corporates in new product development. A number of our lawyers in this area previously worked at major UK law firms renowned for their securitisation expertise and have experience in complex transactions, such as credit-linked synthetic structures, asset-backed securitisations and privatisation-related structures.
