Riolo Calderaro Crisostomo, a spin-off firm Clifford Chance, has moved up to tier three this year. "[The firm] is very strong in banking and capital markets," says one peer, while another one adds: "[The firm] is doing a bit of both [in terms of equity and debt], it probably needs to go to tier three. They're very domestic."
In a €1 billion hybrid instrument mandate, a group of practitioners, including Michele Crisostomo, Marcello Maienza and Federico Vezzani, advised Intesa Sanpaolo on its issue of €1 billion in hybrid instruments targeted at international markets.
Another securitisation highlight, worth €3.5 billion, saw Paolo Calderaro, Maienza and Giovanni Battaglia advising on the securitisation of a residential mortgage loan portfolio originated by Banca Monte dei Paschi di Siena. It's believed to be the first securitisation transaction originated by a Southern European bank which has been distributed to investors in the European capital markets since the beginning of the financial crisis.
