I serve as bond, co-bond counsel, disclosure counsel, special counsel, and underwriters’ counsel on a variety of tax-exempt and taxable municipal finance transactions, including those related to general municipal infrastructure, affordable housing and redevelopment, transportation, power generation and transmission, and water and wastewater services. I assist with preparing and reviewing a variety of documents as part of due diligence, drafting offerings and memoranda, and researching complex legal issues.
With investors’ growing interest in investment opportunities that provide positive social benefits and remedy structural inequities—and especially in light of the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting crises—I will be following the rise of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) bonds with a particular focus on social impact bonds. I look forward to working closely with our clients in exploring creative financing possibilities and preparing accurate disclosures to assist in achieving these social goals at the municipal level.
This article discusses a new digital assets platform based on private-permissioned blockchain technology. The article references San Francisco Project Finance and Public Finance associate Janelle Walker’s “How blockchain could innovate municipal finance” alert. Janelle discusses how embedding blockchain in the municipal market could result in bonds being issued at a lower cost to both local agencies and investors by cutting out the need for certain third-party-completed tasks.
