Macfarlanes were proud to again sponsor the Annual European Fund Finance Symposium in London this week, now in its seventh iteration, and providing as much food for thought as ever. The “buoyant” NAV facility space was a focus for many of the sessions, with many participants citing the view that these types of facilities proved their worth during the pandemic, occasioning an influx of new lenders and innovations.
