The team at Stephenson Harwood has 'a lot of subject matter expertise in a niche field', and client praise its 'solution-orientated, collaborative, responsive' approach. As part of the firm's Marine & International Trade practice, the trade finance group in London calls upon experts in commodities across the whole global supply chain, including transportation, trade, distribution, storage, warehousing, logistics, insurance and, most notably, finance. The standout practitioners are the vastly experienced Philip Prowse and the up-and-coming Jameel Tarmohamed, who is 'very well-versed in his industry and has strong commercial savvy'. Coming up through the junior ranks is Andrew Green, who increasingly acts for banks, investors, and corporates, but particularly traders on commodities finance transactions. The practice frequently acts for the major commodities trading houses and some international banks in both highly structured transactions and deals involving traditional trade finance instruments such as letters of credit.
