Overview of our Transactional Practice Group. 
Banking and Finance sub-group We help both domestic and international clients navigate cross-border and domestic financing across a broad range of industries. This requires our Banking & Finance lawyers to be experienced in both local and international banking and finance laws, regulations and customs, and to collaborate seamlessly across multiple jurisdictions to efficiently address complex finance issues simultaneously and in multiple markets.
Real Estate sub-group Our global Real Estate team has been ranked as the world's best numerous years running by Euromoney magazine. With attorneys specializing in real estate matters in every financial center jurisdiction on the globe, Baker & McKenzie can offer services that no other firm can. As one example, our real estate team handles the full global property management function for several Fortune 100 corporations, and has been an integral part of several of the world's largest spinoffs and mergers in recent years, due to our ability to seamlessly manage all of the property matters relevant to those transactions from a central location, within one firm. In addition, our global platform leads to an outsized footprint on large traditional property transactions, as such transactions have increasingly become cross-border affairs. Baker & McKenzie's North American Real Estate group also has a large presence in the hotel and hospitality market, and has advised on hotel transactions in California, Chicago, Miami, New York and numerous other U.S. markets, as well as Mexico, St. Barth's and other places we wish we could visit more often.
CORPORATE & SECURITIES subgroup  Collaborating across borders and legal areas, we bring the right know-how and experience to anticipate and resolve issues in all involved jurisdictions, offering a one-stop shop for all deal, securities and transaction related services. Our clients and their transactions touch every major global industry including pharmaceuticals, technology, real estate funds, manufacturing & engineering, consumer products, media, healthcare and many others. We frequently represent United States multinational corporations investing abroad and foreign corporations investing in the United States.
Our practice primarily focuses on: Mergers, Acquisitions sub-group and Post-Acquisition Restructuring sub-group Whether our M&A clients are buying or selling, entering into a joint venture or making a strategic investment, we work on every stage of the deal, from structuring, due diligence and negotiation through execution to implementation and post-deal integration. Our transactions are typically international in some form and range from mid-market acquisitions in one jurisdiction to billion dollar cross-border transactions between public companies in 100 jurisdictions.
Global Corporate Reorganizations and Spin Offs sub-group Our Corporate Reorganizations practice is comprised of cross-border and interdisciplinary teams of corporate, tax, employment and commercial practitioners who regularly undertake internal corporate restructurings including spinoffs and post-acquisition integrations. Because of our history, experience and unique approach, we believe that we have expertise that is unmatched by any other law firm in the implementation of cross-border restructurings and spin-offs.
