09.11.2020

Noerr has advised Hamburg Investment and Development Bank (Hamburgische Investitions- und Förderbank - IFB Hamburg) on establishing the “Hamburg Stabilisation Fund” (HSF).

The HSF is a special fund of up to €1 billion established by the City of Hamburg to use capital measures to stabilise Hamburg businesses whose existence is threatened by the COVID-19 pandemic. The HSF’s main stabilisation instruments are silent participations and guarantees. The HSF is managed by a subsidiary of IFB Hamburg.

Noerr provided IFB Hamburg with comprehensive advice on all legal aspects involved in setting up the HSF, especially drafting the master documents for the HSF’s stabilisation instruments.
