  • Global Integrated Metals Company/US$1 billion. We represented a global integrated metals company in relation to a US$1 billion inventory-based ABL revolving syndicated credit facility led by a leading global bank.
  • International Bank/€150 million financing for Bibby Group. We represented an international bank in the €150 million financing of certain European operating subsidiaries of the Bibby group of factors domiciled in Ireland, Germany, the Netherlands, Poland, the Czech Republic and Slovakia. The financing structure constitutes primarily of a back-to-back receivables purchase structure in relation to acquired trade receivables but also includes a revolving loan facility in relation to loan receivables advanced by Bibby.
  • Swift Worldwide Resources and Air Energi/US$305 million credit facilities. We represented Swift Worldwide Resources and Air Energi, as borrowers, and Wellspring Capital Management, as sponsor, in the refinancing of US$305 million worth of working capital facilities comprising a syndicated UK receivables finance facility, a US revolving receivables facility, a syndicated US term loan facility, a Korean receivables facility and local working capital facilities in Australia, Canada, Indonesia, Malaysia, Papua New Guinea and Singapore.

We advised White Oak ABL LCC as FILO lender in relation to its £90 million FILO loan to British Steel Limited as part of a wider £265 million facility to British Steel, led by PNC.
