Banking and Finance

Banking is an important economic activity that provides access to finance for businesses and individuals. In Slovenia, corporate banking is not regulated by a sole and specific legal act, while retail banking is regulated by the Slovenian Consumer Credit Act.

We have many years of experience in the banking sector and our activities include:

• Legal advisory to lenders and corporate borrowers;
• Preparation of contractual documentation for financing (bilateral and syndicated loans; LMA contractual documentation; loan refinancing);
• Accompanying steps in the financing process – legal due diligence on existing documentation and on security;
• Security establishment: mortgage, pledge of movable property, pledge of receivables, fiduciary transfer, surety, letter of comfort;
• Obtaining regulatory authorisations for banks, insurance companies and financial market participants;
• Advising consumers regarding their legal relationships with lenders.
