Tom Caster, a senior associate in Dechert’s finance practice, primarily advises on commercial and residential mortgage-backed securitizations, warehouse lines and other complex structured financings for a broad client base on both the buy and sell-sides, including global systemically important banks, investment funds and private equity houses.
Mr. Caster has particular experience advising in relation to repurchase and repurchase securitization facilities used to finance commercial real estate back-leverage transactions. Mr. Caster also routinely advises in relation to more general finance matters and has experience of complex cross-border restructurings of capital markets instruments.
Mr. Caster has been instrumental in developing innovative repo-to-securitization structures for GSIBs to support the financing of substantial commercial real estate loans in the UK, Europe, Australia, and the U.S. These structures represent niche transactions demanding significant technical and regulatory expertise in securitization and repo arrangements across the U.S., the UK, and the European Union.
Prior to joining Dechert, Mr. Caster was an associate in the London office of another international law firm where he also trained.
