Bringing business-minded legal counsel to complex financing and restructuring

      With layered capital structures and competing creditor interests, cross-border finance and restructuring comes with complexity as standard. For today’s in-house teams, that complexity brings a challenge: how to turn commercial intent into practical next steps. Success often depends on getting coordinated legal advice across lenders, borrowers, investors and jurisdictions. 

      Our financing and restructuring legal team advises on a broad range of transactions — from finance and refinancing to debt restructuring, capital reorganizations and structured financing arrangements. We work with corporate borrowers, private equity sponsors and investors to support the entire transaction lifecycle, implementing frameworks and executing transactions that perform under pressure.

      Working alongside our global organization of tax, corporate and restructuring professionals, we’re here to help you convert transactional complexity into clear, compliant and actionable strategies. 



      How we help

      The KPMG Law Finance & Restructuring practice advises lenders, investors and corporate borrowers on the structuring, negotiation and execution of complex financing and restructuring transactions. Working with global tax and advisory specialists, KPMG Law professionals help design capital structures, implementing arrangements and managing restructuring across jurisdictions.

      Acquisition and structured finance

      From acquisitions and asset purchases to investments and structured transactions, our practice supports the negotiation of credit facilities, security packages, intercreditor arrangements and covenant frameworks for underlying transactions.

      Refinancing and capital reorganization

      We support borrowers and lenders on refinancing transactions, including amendments to existing facilities, recapitalizations and capital structure adjustments. Our team advises on restructuring debt frameworks to reflect commercial strategies and market conditions, both locally and internationally.

      Solvent and strategic restructuring

      Working with our global advisory organization and sector-specific capabilities, we advise on reorganizations that help isolate assets, reposition financing within group structures and prepare businesses for strategic change.

      Global coordination and stakeholder alignment

      Where financing or restructuring transactions involve multiple jurisdictions, lenders or credit groups, we coordinate legal workstreams across our global organization to enhance efficient transaction execution with aligned stakeholder engagement.
