Publisher's Synopsis
This companion provides a concise introduction to the law, practice and procedure of fund raising in the international banking and capital markets. It deals with the underlying principles applicable to loans, security, guarantees, bonds and other debt issues. It also explores the more complex and fast developing areas of swaps and securitization. Lucid, well chosen examples and an easy-to-read style, ensure a comprehensive understanding of a wide range of transactions from the straightforwardness of simple loans to the complexities of fund raising via securitization. With the focus just as much on the practice and procedures involved as on the legislation, this guide aims to offer both a source of reference and a practical tool to problem solving. All LPC students, newly qualified solicitors, post graduate students of City business, practitioners seeking an introduction to this field, bankers and other non-legal practitioners in the City, should find this book essential reading.
