Debt Issuances and High Yield Debt

The Canadian high-yield debt market continues to develop as transaction volume and value increase, and Canadian issuers increasingly look to tap into this market. Goodmans’ Banking and Finance Group has established significant expertise in this area through its representation of parties on all sides of major transactions, both on U.S. deals with a Canadian component and purely Canadian deals.

Our lawyers have advised financial institutions such as The Bank of Montreal and National Bank Financial as underwriters and issuers such as Atlantic Power Corporation, Postmedia Network Inc. and Masonite International Corporation, and have teamed with our Corporate Restructuring Group in representing creditor committees in some of Canada’s largest high-yield debt exchange offerings.
