Our experience in detail
Our team
Our Equity Capital Markets (ECM) team covers the full range of capital raising transactions, starting with IPOs.
An in-depth understanding of both the law and market practice is key to working through these transactions. Our team is made up of over 40 corporate finance lawyers and we have been one of the busiest ECM teams in London over the past few years. For a look at the IPOs on which we have worked on, see “Our experience in detail” above.
Integrated into our team is a London-based US Securities Law Group with over 30 years of combined experience working in London and the European equity capital markets, meaning that as well as advising on all UK aspects of any equity offering, we are also able to advise companies, management, banks and other market participants on securities offerings into the United States.
Against the backdrop of the recent listing reforms, we hope this website is helpful. Please feel free to contact me or any member of our partner team if you would like to discuss any aspect of our IPO and general ECM services further.
