Now considered to be the must-attend event for those involved in the European world of leveraged finance, Euromoney Seminars' Leveraged Finance 2011 will bring you:

An unparalled cross-section of views in the industry, with this year's event featuring over 80 top speakers

The full industry perspective, with the views of private equity sponsors; arranging and lending banks; High Yield investors; CLO funds; limited partners; mezzanine investors; secondary market loan traders and restructuring advisors, as well as lawyers, the ratings agencies and other advisors involved in the chain

Superb networking opportunities with over 200 industry professionals from across Europe expected to attend this year's event

So far 2011 has been characterised by a huge uplift in the use of High Yield Bonds in leveraged finance deals. This has had significant ramifications for capital structures, deal terms, investor behaviour and the opportunities for many of the players in the system. This year's event will be your best opportunity to stay ahead of the curve at a time when the market has become exceptionally dynamic.

Join your peers in September at the Jumeirah Carlton Tower Hotel in Knightsbridge and hear leading experts discuss:

• The state of the economic landscape, including the Eurozone peripherary; interest rates and the effects of new regulation on the global economy
• Where the liquidity is coming from in the leveraged landscape
• The capital structures and deal terms currently being used and opinions on whether the market is at risk of overheating
• The future of CLO funds; how they are navigating the 'skin-in-the-game' 5% retention rule and the potential consequences for capacity in the market
• The impact of Basel III on the banks and how they will retrench and restructure their business models to comply
• The role of mezzanine going forward now that High Yield market is coming to maturity
• How pari passu arrangements between high yield bonds and senior loans are likely to play out

We look forward to welcoming you in London this September for the leveraged finance industry's leading event. If you are interested in sponsorship opportunities, please contact Ben Grandy on bgrandy@euromoneyplc.com
