Despite losing some mid-market private equity sponsor credibility with the recent departures of Chris Akinrele and Chris Hastings to Norton Rose Fulbright and Squire Patton Boggs respectively, Eversheds Sutherland (International) LLP still handles a considerable amount of corporate-led acquisition finance work, as well as substantially enhancing its lender credentials with the recruitment in July 2023 of Ben Davis from Proskauer Rose LLP. Recognised as a 'real star' who 'fights very hard for his clients', Davis adds particular strength on the private credit front, the primary source of the funding of mid-market deals in Europe. Nick Swiss heads the team and has good traction among conventional banking clients.
