The Maples Group, a legal and international financial services provider, has announced the launch of its corporate trust offering from its London office.
The firm says the provision of corporate trust services enables it to support clients, both domestically and internationally, across a wide spectrum of financing structures spanning debt capital markets, as well as secured and unsecured financing, comprising structured and corporate finance, and private equity transactions.
This expansion enhances the Maples Group’s ability to deliver a comprehensive, holistic and integrated suite of corporate and fiduciary services in the UK.
Under its corporate trust mandate, the Maples Group will act as Security Trustee by holding, administering and, where required, enforcing legal security on behalf of beneficiaries, including in connection with restructurings/refinancings, defaults, distressed transactions, work-outs, and insolvencies.
In this capacity, it will support borrower clients in raising capital across complex financing arrangements.
As a Note Trustee, the Maples Group will act as an independent third-party fiduciary, representing the interests of investors in connection with debt securities issuances, including stand-alone bond issuances and medium-term note programmes, securitisations, covered bonds and collateralised loan obligations.
Sam Ellis, global head of Fiduciary Services, “We are delighted to launch our Security Trustee services to the UK, which addresses a significant gap in the market.
“Our clients have been clear in their preference for a new and alternative player to act as Security and/or Note Trustee in London and welcome our ability to fulfil this key role as part of an integrated suite of corporate services on both domestic UK securitisations and complex, cross-border transactions.”
