Premier Sponsor

The Loan Market Association(LMA)’s key objective is improving liquidity, efficiency and transparency in the primary and secondary syndicated loan markets in Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA). By establishing sound, widely accepted market practice, we seek to promote the syndicated loan as one of the key debt products available to borrowers across the region.

As the authoritative voice of the syndicated loan market in EMEA, we work with lenders, law firms, borrowers and regulators to educate the market about the benefits of the syndicated loan product, and to remove barriers to entry for new participants.

For over 130 years Slaughter and May has been a leading international law firm at the heart of some of the most complex and sensitive legal issues. From the very beginning we have had a prestigious, international client base and a reputation for excellence. Over the years we have been at the forefront of many significant legal developments and have striven to maintain our position as one of the leading law firms in the world. Our longstanding relationships with policy makers mean we are at the forefront of upcoming changes, influencing guidance and providing clients with timely practical support. We advise clients across the full spectrum of industries and markets, from UK and international governments and listed corporates to private equity funds, individuals and family offices.

We view sustainability and climate change as fundamental considerations within all strategic and operational decision making, impacting all businesses and organisations. We were the first law firm in the world to set a long-term decarbonisation target and a founding member of the Net Zero Lawyers Alliance (NZLA). Our sustainability team also advised the Secretariat to UK’s Transition Plan Taskforce (“TPT”) in relation to the TPT's Transition Plan Disclosure Framework and Sector Guidance. We understand the challenges and opportunities developing within the transition to a low carbon and sustainable future, and provide our clients with expert advice and insight on securing long term responsible business practices and resilience.
