Iris Bäcklund
Partner
Banking & Financial Markets
Called 2005
Acts for lenders and borrowers in facility disputes, derivatives close-outs, and the regulatory investigations that tend to follow them. Appeared in three of the reported ISDA close-out valuation cases. Comfortable with the models, which shortens the argument about what the numbers actually show.

Background
Iris acts for lenders and borrowers in roughly equal measure, in facility disputes, events of default, derivatives close-outs and security enforcement.
Her cases are document-heavy and turn far more often on the drafting than on the commercial background, and she reads the whole file before advising. She appeared for the successful trustees in In re Ashgrove Pension Trustees.
She spent four years in-house at a clearing bank before returning to private practice, which informs how she reads a credit committee’s decision-making.
