Fiona is a partner in our London finance practice and is Global co-head of our Fund Finance practice.

Fiona relocated from our Hong Kong office in July 2021 after 13 years in Asia where she established the fund finance practice in APAC in 2015 and since then, together with her colleagues across Hong Kong, Singapore and Sydney, advised on some of the largest and most innovative fund finance transactions in the market.

Fiona has extensive knowledge of the full suite of global fund finance products (including subscription line facilities, NAV facilities, hybrid facilities and GP and manco financings) as well as more general debt finance experience in leveraged and event driven acquisition financings, real estate financings, special situations and hybrid instruments.

She works across all private capital asset classes advising funds as borrowers and lenders as well as for other financial institutions providing financing to funds.

Fiona is a member of the board for Women in Fund Finance (WFF) Europe, having previously been the co-chair of WFF Asia-Pacific.
