Christophe Lefort steers the practice and specialises in advising public and private operators, government bodies, contractors and financial institutions on financings. The ’business-oriented’ Yves Lepage focuses on PPPs and the financing of power generation projects. Carine Mou Si Yan left the firm in December 2023.
