PRESS RELEASE
Clifford Chance Prague Association advises Československá
obchodní banka in relation to club financing of Česká pošta
Clifford Chance Prague Association has advised Československá obchodní banka, one of the
major players in the Czech banking market and Raiffeisenbank, UniCredit Bank Czech Republic
and Slovakia and Prague branch of Všeobecná úverová banka on the club financing of current
indebtedness and business needs of Česká pošta.
This transaction represents the first club financing for Česká pošta, which had previously relied
exclusively on bilateral financing arrangements.
Our Banking & Finance legal team provided full support throughout the financing process,
especially in the preparation of the facilities agreement and other related documentation.
Česká pošta is a Czech state-owned company, responsible for providing postal and logistics
services. It operates under the authority of the Ministry of the Interior and plays a key role in
delivering mail, parcels, and related services across the country. In addition to traditional postal
functions, it also offers financial services, operates a network of branches nationwide, and acts as
a service point for various public administration tasks.
The legal team advising on this transaction was led by senior associate Hana Čekalová and junior
lawyer Ondřej Šteco, under the supervision of managing partner Miloš Felgr.
