Clifford Chance

The London Structured Debt Group at Clifford Chance won the ABS Law Firm of the Year award on 13 March at GlobalCapital's European Securitization Awards 2019 and was shortlisted for four other awards. The award and nominations recognise the firm's leading position in the European structured finance market.

Winners were determined by industry and peer voting across transactions structured and completed during 2018. The awards ceremony was attended by Partners and lawyers involved in Structured Debt and more than 250 representatives from banks, issuers, sponsors, law firms and accounting firms active in the securitisation and structured finance markets.

"This recognition is a testament to the hard work of every member of the team and our collaboration with practices across the firm," said Kevin Ingram, a partner in the London Structured Debt Group. "We are delighted that our focus on building strong relationships with our clients particularly on high end complex matters has resulted in such complimentary feedback. Structured Debt continues to be a dynamic, complex and important area of the global financial markets."

The London Structured Debt Group is also nominated for Structured Finance and Securitisation Law Firm of the Year and four Securitisation Deal of the Year awards at the forthcoming IFLR Europe Awards due to take place on 4 April at The Savoy in London.
