In particular, Chiomenti assists its clients in the financing of acquisitions of industrial, commercial, financial, and insurance companies and is constantly involved in major project finance deals in Italy, including significant financings for the construction and development of commercial and environmentally low-impact power plants, as well as wind and solar power plants, and other project financings of national interest. The Firm also provides ongoing assistance to its clients in export finance, leasing, and asset finance in various sectors, including maritime, aeronautical, and real estate.
