Clifford Chance (CC) has this month closed two European high yield deals worth more than €200m (£137m) each.

The first deal saw the magic circle firm’s US securities group head in London, John Connolly, advise Spanish cable giant Cableuropa on its recent €270m (£185m) issue. In the US, CC associate Greg Nardini and Madrid finance partner Carlo Hernandez-Canut also advised. The issue of the high yield bonds allowed Cableuropa to acquire the cable assets of Spanish company Auna.
