Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton, Bredin Prat and former Clifford Chance (CC) partner Yves Herinckx have all advised on stricken bank Dexia’s latest €5.5bn (£4.4bn) bailout by France and Belgium.

The struggling Franco-Belgian lender, which was the subject of earlier rounds of recapitalisation in 2008 and 2011, will receive 53% – €2.9bn (£2.3bn) – of funds from Belgium and the remainder from France.
