Tapping Asian Growth
Murning joins from Kirkland & Ellis's Hong Kong office where he has focused on leveraged finance and other complex event-driven finance transactions, Special Situations and alternative credit provider financings, and the restructuring of complex debt arrangements. He advises both borrowers and capital providers at all levels of the capital structure.
The firm is committed to growing its global Finance practice and follows the recent appointment of Senior Consultant to the firm, Maurice Allen.
