Syndication

Our competent and well-connected team offers syndication of financial transactions and structuring expertise. With many years of experience and extensive industry knowledge we specialize in the asset classes of Corporate Clients, Real Estate and Project Finance. As part of the Syndications & Investment Solutions (SIS) division we operate both nationally and internationally.

Our products include attractive investment opportunities in large-scale transactions realized in collaboration with well-known clients. We place great emphasis on balanced risk-return profiles to provide our partners with a solid decision-making basis. NORD/LB acts as an experienced Lead Arranger, Structurer, Arranger, Agent, and Security Trustee retaining a close connection to the projects through our substantial final hold positions. This ensures our strong commitment to shared success.

We specialize in the syndication of the following asset classes:

Syndication with Saving Banks

As a Landesbank we prefer to enter into partnerships with savings banks or other partners of the S-Finance Group for our syndicated financings with a national focus. We offer our partner savings banks attractive participation opportunities in financings across all target client groups of NORD/LB.

Real Estate

The syndication team for real estate plays a key role in Commercial Real Estate Financing, particularly in collaboration with Deutsche Hypo – Nord/LB Real Estate Finance. The team's core tasks include all syndication activities and it also serves as the central point of contact for participation enquiries from syndication partners.

Corporate Clients

Our syndication team coordinates closely with the borrower to approach and engage with syndication partners for Corporate Client Financings, Leveraged Buyouts (LBOs), and Acquisition Financing. We are available throughout the entire process to address all implementation questions and topics.
