Head of International Capital Markets, David Lucking said: “Winning this award at both the U.S. and global awards ceremonies is a fantastic recognition by our clients of our collaboration in and commitment to this area as a firm. We have expanded rapidly in the U.S. over the last two years. Our team of market-leading renewables partners who joined last year, have been actively involved across the entire renewable and ESG market, working closely with our U.S. derivatives and structured finance lawyers.”
