A&O Shearman advised ten banks in the entry of new transactions with the Central Bank of the Republic of Argentina (BCRA) in an amount of USD6bn over BONAR bonds in connection with the termination of all of BCRA’s outstanding repurchase transactions in the same amount.

The new transactions improved the BCRA’s maturity profile, reduced its financing costs and strengthened its foreign currency liquidity position.

The A&O Shearman team was led by partners Donna Parisi and Geoffrey Goldman, counsel Andrew Feng, international associate Emilie Ferré, and associate Ben Halligan, and included partners Christopher Ryan, Alejandro A. Gordano, Jonathan Cho, Lorenz Haselberger, James Webber, Antonio Martinez, Börries Ahrens, and Philipp Steinhaeuser, counsels Ryan Leske, Anna Stockamore, and Jaime Rodriguez, associates Masashi Shimojo and Robert Debenedetti, trainee solicitor Aled Bennett, and summer associates Victoria Tse and Joe Largo.
