- draft, review, negotiate and provide legal opinions on prime brokerage agreements, asset management agreements, market standard stock lending documentation (GMSLAs) and other market-standard treasury documentation (ie GMRAs); and
- establish and list bespoke structured products, referencing a variety of asset classes.
