Global law firm Dentons has announced the recruitment of Annalisa Feliciani as a partner in the Debt Capital Markets team in Rome.

Annalisa Feliciani, who joins Dentons from Hogan Lovells, has more than 15 years’ experience in advising banks, financial institutions and corporations on the issuance of various types of financial instruments to institutional and retail investors, including bonds, structured bonds, certificates, warrants, commercial papers, promissory notes and mini bonds. She regularly coordinates approval procedures with regulatory authorities and the listing of financial instruments on European regulated markets and MTFs. She has significant legal knowledge of ESG financial instruments such as green, social and sustainability bonds.

Annalisa Feliciani’s arrival strengthens Dentons’ Debt Capital Markets team, led by partner Piergiorgio Leofreddi, and consolidates the Firm’s offering for institutional clients in Rome on a wide range of financial instruments, including sustainable finance.

“Annalisa Feliciani’s arrival marks another step in Dentons’ positioning as a high quality law firm in the Italian legal market”. Federico Sutti, Italy Managing Partner.

"The goal that we set with Piergiorgio was to develop a Debt Capital Markets team able to address the needs of our clients. With Annalisa’s entry, we have achieved this goal. Our clients can now count on a high-profile team of lawyers with complementary skills, who are able to support them on a wide range of capital markets transactions" added Alessandro Fosco Fagotto, Head of the Italian and of the European Banking and Finance practice.

Annalisa Feliciani commented: “I am very happy and proud to be joining a dynamic law firm like Dentons, and contributing my experience and skills to help further develop the Debt Capital Markets team.
