As such, he regularly assists in structured or specialised financing transactions on behalf of banks, particularly with a view to preparing financing documents (loan agreement, mezzanine, subordination agreement, pool operating loans, etc.) and collateral documents (pledging of financial securities account, pledges of company shares, pledges of business assets, etc.).
