About

With over a decade of experience and 150+ closed deals, I specialize in advising leading banks, private debt funds, sponsored investment vehicles, large corporations, and SMEs on a wide range of domestic and cross-border financing transactions. My expertise spans all types of acquisition financings and leveraged buyouts, both in syndicated and take-and-hold spaces. This includes senior debt, unitranche financings, subordinated debt, and mezzanine capital, structured as loan facilities and bond issuances. I have developed a strong proficiency in refinancings, corporate financings - such as revolving and capex facilities - and real estate finance transactions. Recognized by Chambers and Partners and Legal 500, I am grateful for the positive feedback from clients, who describe me as "an outstanding professional – always ready to help and give guidance. An excellent negotiator", "very sharp and a guarantee for delivery on time. Also super-supportive during and after closing", "very good and technical. He displays excellent preparation on private debt matters and post-deal support" and "commercial, strong, practical and responsive".
