LONDON, August 14, 2025 – Proskauer has added Peter Mason as a partner in its Global Finance practice in London. His arrival strengthens the firm’s European leveraged finance capabilities at a time of continued growth and momentum.

Peter advises lenders, sponsors, and corporations on complex financings across the capital structure, including European and U.S.-style Term Loan B, bank/bond, and direct lending deals. His experience spans leveraged and investment-grade transactions, real estate financings, and restructurings.

Peter was named a Rising Star of European Finance 2025 by Financial News.

“Our Global Finance team continues to grow in response to increasing client demand,” said Philip Bowden, co-head of the Global Finance practice. “Peter brings valuable insight and a strong track record spanning the deal spectrum. I am excited to welcome him as we continue to grow our platform and deliver a full suite of leveraged finance solutions globally.”
