Aequo has advised the Ukrainian subsidiary of Sberbank of Russia on its restructuring of a multi-million loan facility granted to the Smila Electromechanical Plant, one of the largest Ukrainian producers of electric equipment for railway machines, large-capacity vehicles, municipal passenger electric transport, port facilities, and industrial lifting devices.
The Aequo team was supervised by Partner Yulia Kyrpa, who said: "It was extremely satisfying for us to draw on our knowledge to guide the creditor throughout the restructuring process, as well as to demonstrate our expertise in the debt restructuring field, which is likely to remain the hottest area in 2017." Kyrpa was supported by Of Counsel Maryna Fedorenko and Senior Associate Denys Kulgavyi.
