With more than 1000 lawyers in 17 cities worldwide, Dechert LLP advises corporations<br />
and fi nancial institutions on corporate, transactional, regulatory and litigation matters.<br />
Leading <strong>the</strong> <strong>Islamic</strong> finance industry<br />
Dechert’s <strong>Islamic</strong> fi nance practice comprises some of <strong>the</strong> world’s leading <strong>Islamic</strong> finance<br />
lawyers. We are one of <strong>the</strong> most active practices in <strong>the</strong> world in this area. Members of our<br />
team have been involved in <strong>Islamic</strong> fi nance since 1996 and are well-known for developing<br />
Shariah compliant products and structures. We are immersed in, and devoted to, this<br />
business and have very strong relationships with leading Shariah scholars. Work fl ow<br />
is handled expeditiously and effi ciently; proprietary and custom transactions, including<br />
new products and structures, are executed with <strong>the</strong> assurance that, no matter how novel,<br />
<strong>the</strong> work will be done in a timely manner — with no last-minute surprises. We see each<br />
new structure from all perspectives, with informed sensitivity to Shariah issues and <strong>the</strong><br />
business needs and constraints of our clients and o<strong>the</strong>r transactional participants. Our<br />
goal is to allow our clients to be competitive with conventional interest-based institutions,<br />
as well as o<strong>the</strong>r institutions in <strong>the</strong> <strong>Islamic</strong> fi nance markets. Our <strong>Islamic</strong> fi nance practice<br />
was <strong>the</strong> recipient of <strong>the</strong> Best Global <strong>Islamic</strong> <strong>Finance</strong> Legal Adviser for <strong>the</strong> Year 2006-07<br />
award at <strong>the</strong> annual Euromoney <strong>Islamic</strong> <strong>Finance</strong> Conference in London, and <strong>the</strong> Sheikh<br />
Mohammad bin Rashid Al-Makhtoum Award for Special Recognition in <strong>Islamic</strong> <strong>Finance</strong>,<br />
at The International <strong>Islamic</strong> <strong>Finance</strong> Forum, Dubai, UAE <strong>the</strong> previous year.<br />
