Supporting Yes Bank's cross-border lending by securing UK assets and aligning legal advice across India, Singapore and the UK.
We created a streamlined process to support Yes Bank’s funding of Indian and multinational corporates with UK and Singapore subsidiaries. Our team developed standardised security documents and legal opinions approved by the bank, ensuring consistency and efficiency across deals. By aligning advice with our Singapore office, we deliver a cohesive multi-jurisdictional approach while remaining flexible to adapt documentation for complex transactions. This saves time, reduces costs, and provides Yes Bank with confidence in cross-border lending.
Our support enables Yes Bank to accelerate cross-border lending, confidently securing UK assets while maintaining cost efficiency. The standardised documents and aligned legal opinions streamline its approval process, reduces duplication, and ensures consistency in advice. This strengthens the Yes Bank ability to fund Indian and global corporates internationally, enhancing its presence in key markets and laying the groundwork for deeper relationships and future growth.
This work supports the strategic international expansion of Yes Bank, enabling it to compete with global lenders while strengthening ties with Indian corporates abroad. By simplifying cross-border lending into the UK and ensuring aligned advice with Singapore, RPC helps create a scalable model for future deals. The approach not only improves funding efficiency but also contributes to wider economic growth by facilitating investment between India, the UK, and Southeast Asia.
"By aligning advice across India, Singapore and the UK, we created a streamlined process that saves time, reduces costs and gives Yes Bank confidence in securing assets in those jurisdictions in an effective and efficient manner. This strengthens its cross-border lending and deepens ties with key markets."
