On 4 January 2022, Fortum Oyj has announced that its subsidiary Uniper SE has taken precautionary financing measures to secure liquidity in extremely volatile market conditions. These financing measures include a multi-tranche EUR 8bn intra-group facility granted by Uniper's majority shareholder Fortum and a EUR 2bn revolving credit facility granted by the German state-owned bank KfW.
A Hengeler Mueller team led by partners Daniela Böning and Nikolaus Vieten (both Financing, Frankfurt) advised Fortum on the Uniper financing measures.
