| Deal Title: | Starwood European Real Estate Finance Limited IPO | Industry: | Nonequity Investment Instruments |
| Description: |
Mourant Ozannes provided Guernsey advice on the establishment and listing of Starwood European Real Estate Finance Limited by Starwood Capital Group. The Fund has been formed to provide lending solutions to European real estate borrowers in order to take advantage of the financing gap created by the withdrawal of traditional and alternative lenders from the financing markets as a result of the 2008 global financial crisis and the on-going sovereign and banking crises in Europe. The Fund has successfully raised GBP228.5 million, exceeding its initial target of GBP200 million. This represents the largest fund initial public offering of 2012 and the second largest premium segment listing IPO of 2012.
Mourant Ozannes' partner Gavin Farrell and senior associate Marcel Cariou assisted on all Guernsey aspects of the establishment and the registration of the Fund by the Guernsey Financial Services Commission, working with London law firm Norton Rose and Guernsey-based administration firm Ipes (Guernsey) Limited.
