CC considers foray into European debt market
Clifford Chance, which in January became the first European firm to raise funds through a private placement, is contemplating a return trip to the debt market, this time opting for a European private placement. Clifford Chance finance director Chris Merry said the firm is, at the moment, just considering launching a private placement. If it does choose to sell bonds, it will opt for a European-based placement in either euro or sterling-denominated notes.
