The Turning Tide of Energy Storage: A Global Opportunity and Regulatory Roadmap for 2024

Thomas is particularly active in advising enterprises that employ derivatives to hedge risks, monetize assets, and finance the acquisition of assets on favorable terms—with and without the benefits of leverage—including financing issuer equity and debt repurchase programs. His derivative experience extends to the repo (whether cleared at the FICC or uncleared), securities lending, and physical and financial forward markets. He is fully conversant with all relevant industry documentation, including ISDAs, MRAs, MSFTAs, MSLAs, GMRAs, GMSLAs, and EEIs. He actively represents clients on treasury clearing reforms, Dodd–Frank derivative reform, and LIBOR reform.

Thomas also represents issuers in public and private sales of equity and debt securities. He advises purchasers and sellers in stock sales, asset sales, and merger transactions; counsels investment managers in leveraged private fund investments; and advises governmental and private pension fund managers and wealthy families with respect to their investments in private funds.
