White & Case has promoted 11 of its lawyers to local partnership across its offices worldwide, including capital markets lawyer Seiji Matsuzoe in Tokyo.

Matsuzoe specialises in structured finance, credit-linked loans, warrant-backed loans and securitisation transactions.

Matsuzoe’s promotion further strengthens White & Case’s Tokyo office, which hired M&A partner Mangyo Kinoshita from O’Melveny & Myers in August.
