Kinstellar has advised a syndicate of international banks led by UniCredit Bank and including Tatra Banka, CSOB, and Hypo-Bank Burgenland in relation to a EUR 175 million club loan provided to HB Reavis for the construction of Nivy Station in Bratislava. Dentons advised HB Reavis on the deal.

Project plans include the construction of a supra-regional shopping center, a bus station, and a marketplace with leisure zones.
