We’re excited to launch our first Fund Finance Friday of 2026 in what promises to be a pivotal year for our clients and the broader fund finance market. Building on the news shared just before the holidays, Hogan Lovells and Cadwalader have announced an intention to combine, creating Hogan Lovells Cadwalader – a firm that will bring together Cadwalader’s longstanding, market-leading fund finance platform with a truly global footprint.

For the fund finance community, this combination is about scale, depth and continued innovation in support of private capital, which remains a key driver of growth across the global economy. The combined firm will unite deep relationships with leading financial institutions and providers of private capital with a global platform operating across G20 markets, positioning Hogan Lovells Cadwalader to help drive the next generation of fund finance structures.

As we begin the new year, our focus remains on delivering the same service, responsiveness and creativity that you expect from Cadwalader’s fund finance team, with enhanced resources to support your most sophisticated and challenging matters. You can learn more about this next chapter and our shared ambition for the future of the fund finance market at our combination microsite, oursharedambition.com.

Here’s to a successful 2026 – and to continuing to shape the future of fund finance, together.
