Banking & Finance in Germany

Financial transactions and other banking and finance related matters confront legal advisers with constantly growing demands. Complex financing transactions, both at the domestic and international level, require structuring and documentation commensurate with the high expectations of market participants. In this context, complex regulatory requirements, as well as related corporate and tax law requirements, need to be taken into account. With a team of Banking & Finance experienced lawyers in Frankfurt/Main and Munich, Baker & McKenzie is able to provide the full range of services necessary to fulfill these expectations.

Legal skills


Baker & McKenzie lawyers are recognized and respected legal advisers in financial circles. Our lawyers are highly qualified and, as a result of intensive training and continuing education at home and abroad, their familiarity with legal issues and relevant commercial structures is not restricted to their home jurisdictions alone.
