Jean Anderson, David Nadler, Carrie Smit, David Wiseman, and Caroline Descours co-authored the Canada Chapter of The Law Reviews' Acquisition and Leveraged Finance Review 5th Edition. Leveraged lending is frequently used by Canadian
borrowers to fund a number of activities, including acquisitions, capital expenditures, dividend recapitalisations, refinancings of existing debt and ongoing operations. Recent acquisition activity in Canada has been relatively strong, and leveraged loans
continue to be an important source of capital for many Canadian acquisitions. Continuing low interest rates, substantial liquidity in the North American market and the easing of credit terms have contributed to the attractiveness of leveraged loans for
Canadian borrowers.
