WHAT IS STRUCTURED FINANCE?

Structured finance is a sector of finance that manages leverage and risk. The name ‘structured’ derives from financial transactions that are made up of collateral-backed securities.

Principally provided to major financial institutions or companies it invariably involves complex financing on a scale much higher than can be met by an ordinary loan or bond.

Where foreign law governs international transactions: Key impact and considerations for Mauritian parties

We live in an era where the world’s economies, populations and cultures are growing interdependently thanks to cross border transactions and Mauritius, as an international financial centre holds an important position in the arena.

Such legacy allows us to participate in international transactions, whether in the context of financings, mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures or commercial contracts, without much difficulty. It is therefore common for Mauritian entities to enter into agreements governed by foreign laws. One of the key clauses to the agreements governing these cross-border transactions is the choice of law and the agreed forum for dispute resolutions.
