Baker and Carey in Emeco refinance and credit facility
Thomas Muskett-Ford

Baker & McKenzie (Chile) has helped mine equipment supplier Emeco refinance existing debt with an oversubscribed US$335 million notes placement and concurrent US$69 million Australian sourced credit facility.

Carey advised the lead lenders, Credit Suisse (Sydney) and Westpac Banking. It is also thought that King & Wood Mallesons in Austrailia counseled the banks involved, but this could not be confirmed prior to publication. The transaction closed 17 March.
