Plesner’s team handles large-scale financing transactions and complex financial regulatory issues, with a strong emphasis on cross-border deals. The team’s varied workload includes advising on syndicated loans, secured term loans, project and asset-based financings, financial restructurings and receivable securitisations. The team recently led the financing for Novozymes on Denmark’s largest ever corporate merger. ‘Star practitioner’ Søren Thyssen Valerius heads up the team and leads on corporate lending, financing and financial restructuring work. Other key contacts include Jakob Echwald Sevel, who is a go-to adviser for complex regulatory matters; Henrik Kure, who spearheads the team’s green and renewables financing work; and Rasmus Mandøe Jensen, who is praised as a ’complete master of details’. At the associate level, Emil Hedegaard Mikkelsen focuses on acquisition and fund finance mandates.
