Fund finance is and always has been by nature a cross border enterprise. While there are a number of lenders that we represent in the United States that lend to funds exclusively organized in the U.S.– typically in Delaware – that is as a general matter the exception rather than the rule. Given a confluence of factors, including the home jurisdiction of certain investors, tax, and other legal and economic considerations, most fund structures also feature entities organized outside the U.S., most typically in Canada, Cayman, Ireland, Luxembourg, and other European jurisdictions. Therefore, there are cross-border considerations in almost every fund finance deal. Our wonderful stable of local counsel is a critical part of these transactions by drafting and negotiating provisions that are relevant to the legal constructs of the jurisdictions in question, in particular those that relate to the existence, power and authority of such entities, the grant and perfection of security interests, and advising on mechanics that may be unique to the account structure or depositary arrangements, in these jurisdictions.
While the paragraph above gives some perspective on our day-to-day U.S. practice, the subject of this article is slightly different in perspective. In deals originated out of our London fund finance practice, we frequently work alongside our London colleagues to act as their local counsel in connection with English law governed credit or facilities agreement featuring U.S. obligors.
Cadwalader Fund Finance, Finance and Financial Services Group partners have contributed to the 13th edition of Lending & Secured Finance 2025, which covers common issues in lending and secured finance laws and regulations – including guarantees, collateral security, financial assistance, and syndicated lending, published by Global Legal Group.
