Weil and Sayenko Kharenko have advised an ad hoc committee of bondholders of Ukraine’s Eurobonds on a USD 23 billion restructuring of Ukraine’s sovereign debt. White & Case and Avellum reportedly advised The Ministry of Finance of Ukraine.

According to Weil, "the restructuring, agreed in principle between the committee and Ukraine in mid-July, was implemented through an exchange offer and consent solicitation, pursuant to which each series of Eurobonds was exchanged for a package of new step-up A bonds and step-up B bonds."

The Weil team was led by London-based Partner Andrew Wilkinson.

The Sayenko Kharenko team included Partners Nazar Chernyavsky, Anton Korobeynikov, and Igor Lozenko and Senior Associate Oles Trachuk.
