Cross Border Lending

Campbells has established a leading cross-border financing practice, advising international banks, institutional lenders, private credit funds, and corporate borrowers on complex financing transactions spanning multiple jurisdictions.  With offices in the Cayman Islands, the British Virgin Islands, and Hong Kong, we are uniquely positioned to provide seamless, integrated legal advice on lending structures that connect global markets with offshore financial centres. Our lawyers are technically excellent, responsive at all times and skilled in transaction execution. 

Our team regularly acts for lenders and borrowers on bilateral and syndicated loan facilities, acquisition finance, leveraged lending, and structured credit transactions with a cross-border dimension.   We have particular depth of experience advising on financings involving Cayman Islands- and BVI-incorporated borrowers, guarantors, and special purpose vehicles, and we understand the legal and regulatory frameworks that underpin these structures.  Whether a transaction involves security over shares in a BVI or Cayman Islands holding company, the protection and registration of security interests under Cayman Islands or BVI law, or the coordination of multi-jurisdictional security packages, our lawyers deliver clear, commercial, and responsive advice that keeps pace with today’s lending markets.   

Our legal services in cross-border lending with offshore structural elements incorporate complex security reviews and enforcement advice under Cayman Islands and BVI law, corporate structuring and the incorporation of special purpose vehicles, and restructuring and workout advisory for distressed lending situations.  

Our client advice is clear and commercial. We combine deep offshore legal expertise with a genuine understanding of the cross-border lending landscape, enabling our clients to execute transactions with confidence across multiple jurisdictions.
