A Foley & Lardner LLP atuou como consultora jurídica dos acionistas do Helm Bank USA no acordo para a venda de 100% do banco ao Banco de Crédito del Perú (BCP), uma subsidiária da Creditcorp Ltd.

Under the terms of the agreement, BCP will acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Helm Bank for $180 million, subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals in the United States and Peru.
