Finance Advisory

Imperial Solicitors' banking and finance advisory team acts for banks and non-bank lenders on their commercial and retail lending, and on financing transactions at all levels, from bulk residential loans to complex structured finance transactions.

For Nigerian institutional clients, our priority is risk control and execution discipline. We support credit teams, in-house counsel and transaction stakeholders with documentation that is enforceable, commercially workable, and aligned with internal approvals, regulatory expectations, and closing timelines.

Our finance and banking clients include local and international financial services institutions. In delivering services, we deploy strong information management and coordination to support seamless documentation, negotiations and closing.

Working with our team gives clients the benefit of
  • Long standing experience of advising on and drafting security documentation, including collateral structuring, perfection support and closing checklists.
  • Excellent access to senior and highly experienced lawyers, with practical guidance for credit committees and transaction governance.
  • Hands-on lawyer involvement in matters, with clear milestones, status updates and issue spotting before they become delays.
  • Commonsense, cost-effective and first-class legal services focused on enforceability, recoverability and operational practicality.
