Allens has again been recognised as a leading legal adviser in syndicated loans and project finance across the Asia-Pacific region and Australia, achieving top results across key league tables and maintaining its leading position in project finance in the first half of 2026.

'These results reflect the trust our clients place in us to advise on many of the financings and infrastructure projects shaping Australia’s economy. Advising on more than $25 billion of financings in June alone highlights the breadth of our practice and the depth of expertise across our team, and we're pleased to see that work recognised in the leading league tables,' said partner and Head of Banking & Finance Tim Stewart.

'The Infralogic results underscore the continuation of our leading position as the top project finance legal adviser in the Australian market and the immense breadth, depth and capability of our team across many sectors.  We look forward to supporting our clients with their most important project finance transactions for the remainder of 2026 and beyond,' said Head of Project Finance Michael Ryan
