Mahnaz Jan Ali serves clients with a rare combination of legal experience in private practice and institutional investment. She was previously Director of Legal Affairs in the transactional investment group at Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec (CDPQ).

Mahnaz’s experience includes acting for banks, borrowers and financial institutions in sophisticated secured and unsecured lending transactions. This includes international and cross-border financings, syndicated loan transactions, acquisition finance transactions, construction and real estate financings, corporate and equipment financings, as well as project financings. 

She has acted for high profile Canadian and international clients and institutions on various complex renewable energy projects’ acquisitions and financings, including wind farms, solar and hydroelectric.
