Rarely has having a bank with the expertise to navigate uncertain markets been so important to borrowers as in 2023. One firm in particular stood out for its ability to guide successful transactions home in the hardest of conditions. The winner of GlobalCapital’s Loan House of the Year — in addition to a host of other loan awards — was BNP Paribas. GlobalCapital spoke to Nicolas Rabier, the bank’s co-head of investment grade finance, about what lay behind the firm’s success and some of the stand out deals from the past year.

Crédit Agricole CIB was involved in virtually every award-winning loan deal this year. But its strength in real asset finance won special mention. Clean energy and the digital transition are two of the most important trends in global infrastructure — the bank is at the heart of both. Unrivalled experience saw the firm lead stellar telecom tower and offshore wind transactions — leaving it the clear winner of Best Arranger of Infrastructure and Renewables Loans.
