Our lawyers are located in the world’s major financial hubs. Our strong restructuring practice means that we are also well positioned to react to distressed market conditions.
We advise on all types of public offerings, including those registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and those made pursuant to an approved prospectus under the EU's Prospectus Directive. We also advise on private placements, such as those made under Rule 144A in the United States and in Europe to qualified investors under the Prospectus Directive.
Our global team regularly advises on significant transactions, including transactions involving listings on multiple exchanges and worldwide offerings. We assist companies in coming to market, whether by way of institutional or public offering, demerger, demutualization, or privatization. We advise listed companies on secondary fund raisings, capitalization issues, and debt-for-equity arrangements.
Through our network of international offices, we deliver an efficient, integrated service of the highest standard, in which underwriters and issuers alike have the utmost confidence. Our close working relationships with regulators and listing authorities in local markets helps us obtain quick resolutions to difficult regulatory issues for our clients.
