Clifford Chance hired Stuart Stahl to join its Global Financial Markets team, further expanding the firm's structured finance offering to meet growing market demand.
 
Stahl, who has a combination of in-house and firm experience, joins from a prominent asset management firm where he acted as lead counsel for transactions, including securitizations, asset acquisitions, secured financings, and related regulatory and compliance matters. His experience spans residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS), asset-backed securities (ABS) including auto, credit card, utilities and other consumer classes, insurance, equipment and collateralized loan obligations (CLO) asset classes.
 
Partner and Co-Head of the firm's Global Financial Markets practice in the Americas Lee Askenazi says, "We are thrilled to welcome Stuart to the team. As the structured finance, securitization and private credit markets are strong and remain busy, Stuart's broad range of multidisciplinary experience across different asset classes and product types will further strengthen our offerings in these areas."
 
Stahl said, "I look forward to joining the Clifford Chance team and helping clients navigate the complexities of structured finance using the firm's global platform."
