Toronto (Canada)— Fasken has been honoured with the Deal of the Year - High Yield recognition at the IFLR Americas Awards 2025 for our work on the First Quantum Minerals $1.6 billion senior secured second lien notes issuance. This accolade underscores Fasken's innovative and sophisticated legal advisory services for First Quantum Minerals. Coordinating multiple financial instruments for a global investor base demands advanced legal structuring to ensure seamless integration of all components and requires navigating the laws of numerous jurisdictions.
This honour further highlights our team’s broad Capital Markets strength and commitment to outstanding client service, as well as our forward-thinking, multi-disciplinary approach.
Fasken’s Capital Markets practice group is a recognized leader in Canada with over 175 lawyers on our team, regularly acting for underwriters and issuers on Canada’s most complex corporate finance transactions. A key to our success is our proven ability to maintain longstanding relationships with our publicly traded clients (many of which we have been advising since their IPO) that extend beyond capital markets transactions and throughout their lifecycle as publicly-traded issuers.
Judged independently by IFLR’s editorial team, the awards focus exclusively on legal innovation in cross-border transactions that reached financial close during the 2024 calendar year.
