Derivatives

Our derivatives team advises on a broad range of derivatives and hedging transactions, documentation and regulatory issues.

We advise a range of clients, including corporates, investment funds, pension fund trustees and financial institutions.

These span across a broad spectrum of hedging and derivatives matters.

Our capabilities include facility-linked hedging, ISDA documentation, bespoke OTC derivatives contracts and repo agreements, as well as regulatory advice including EMIR.

We have experience advising on derivative products from vanilla interest-rate swaps and structured equity derivatives for retail funds, to energy and emissions trading derivatives including contracts-for-difference.
