Chadbourne & Parke's banking team has had a tumultuous couple of years, with important partners departing and some remarking that it was a practice on the decline. The firm would appear to have redressed that this year, hiring Simon Morgan from White & Case in September 2010 after taking international partner Ivan Kozhemiakov from Simmons & Simmons in July of the same year.
The team's workflow still remains fairly healthy, with a number of deals that required tinkering with existing mandates. On one deal London partners Konstantin Osipov and Alper Deniz advised Nomos Bank on the granting of sub-participation in a multi-million dollar facility extended to a Russian corporate borrower; a deal that completed in February 2011 for $260 million.
Another good deal once more involved Osipov, as he advised Ilim Group as amendments were made to a pre-export financing provided by Societé General, a deal worth $200 million that closed in 2010.
