HSF, Wolf Theiss on first Sino-European railway project

Herbert Smith Freehills has advised the Export-Import Bank of China (CEXIM) on its role in financing the Hungarian section of Budapest-Belgrade railway project, with Wolf Theiss acting as the local legal counsel.

According to HSF’s press release, CEXIM signed a loan agreement with the Hungarian Government to finance 85%, approximately $1.9 billion, of the cost for the overhaul of the railway line on Hungarian territory.

The Budapest-Belgrade railway is the first railway infrastructure project implemented by China in the European Union. The Serbian section has been under construction by Chinese companies since June 2018 and has borrowed $297.6 million from CEXIM. A China-Hungary consortium won the bid as main contractor of the Hungarian section in May 2019.

The HSF team was led by Monica Sun, head of energy practice in Beijing office, and Matthew Job, partner of finance practice in London office, with assistance of London-based partners Tim Briggs and Andrew Cannon.
