Walkers’ Banking & Finance and Regulatory & Risk teams recently advised Suntera Global in connection with a secured senior financing package from global investment firm Carlyle. 

They acted as Jersey, Guernsey, Cayman and BVI counsel (alongside lead counsel King and Spalding) for Suntera, an independent provider of bespoke fund, corporate and private wealth services.

The Walkers’ Guernsey team, which advised on the Guernsey law elements of the transaction, was led by Group Partner Zoë Hallam and included Partner Chris Hutley-Hurst and Associate Rob White.

Commenting on the transaction, Lead Partner Julia Keppe from the Jersey team said: “We are absolutely delighted to have advised Suntera on this matter, working closely with our instructing counsel at King and Spalding, as well as collaborating closely with our Guernsey, London and Cayman colleagues.

“This is a great example of our strong multi-disciplinary offering in this space; our Banking & Finance team regularly works closely with our Corporate, Regulatory and Risk colleagues to assist both lender and borrower clients.”
