Tracy is a Partner in the firm who specialises in Restructuring and Insolvency as well as cross border financing transactions. Since commencing her practice, she has naturally gravitated towards Banking & Finance and Project Finance – areas of the law that provide her with the sort of challenges she relishes.

Her key clients include PT Indonesia Infrastructure Finance, for which she has represented them in several USD and JPY loan financings from multilateral organizations such as the Asian Development Bank, World Bank, International Finance Corporation, and Japan International Cooperation Agency.
Recently, Tracy has shifted her focus towards expanding the firm’s restructuring and insolvency deals. She played a key role in the complex restructuring of PT Garuda Indonesia (Persero) Tbk, an Indonesian national airline, and PT Sumberdaya Sewatama’s debts involving unsecured bilateral loans, IDR bonds (both conventional and sharia), and lease facilities. She has also recently assisted PT Bank Danamon Indonesia Tbk with the sale of its non-performing loan portfolios.
