Counting financial institutions, lessors, shipping and energy companies, and government agencies among its key roster of clients, Norton Rose Fulbright maintains an impressive track record in shipping finance matters, in addition to project financing for offshore oil and gas vessels and rigs, sale and leasebacks, M&A, commercial contracts, financial restructurings and insolvencies, and disputes. Ben Rose leads the team and stands out for his expertise in shipping finance transactions, while Sue Ann Gan acts for financial institutions, lessees and owners in both financing and restructuring mandates. The team, which is praised for its ‘exceptional dedication to understanding and addressing the specific needs of its client’, is well-placed to advise on Singapore law matters through its Formal Law Alliance with Ascendant Legal LLC, where Edgar Chin is a key contact.
