VANDENBULKE assisted an international bank and asset manager providing a diverse range of financial products and services to a client based in three principal markets, the United-Kingdom, South Africa and Australia.

VANDENBULKE advised the financing of the acquisition, through a Luxembourg SPV, of a building located in Lausanne, Switzerland. Following the default on the loan, VANDENBULKE advised also the enforcement of the collateral securing the bank loan to a third party purchaser.

The transaction, valuated at GBP 102,000,000, was considered as one of the largest real estate M&A transactions in Switzerland.
