Practices

Capital Markets

Our capital markets practice advises issuers, underwriters, and investors on a full spectrum of equity and debt capital markets transactions in Hong Kong and internationally, including IPOs on HKEX and NASDAQ, secondary listings, rights issues, placings, and debt financing. We have worked with major investment banks including UBS, Goldman Sachs, BNP Paribas, Merrill Lynch, Deutsche Bank, and Citigroup.

Mergers & Acquisitions

Our M&A practice provides comprehensive advisory services on public and private mergers, acquisitions, disposals, and joint ventures across Asia and internationally.

Private Equity

Our private equity practice advises PE sponsors, VC funds, and portfolio companies on the full investment lifecycle — from fund formation and initial investment through to exit. We have advised on investments ranging from seed-stage venture capital to large-scale private equity transactions, including pre-IPO investments in China Evergrande Group and I-Mab.

Investment Funds

Our investment funds practice advises on the structuring and establishment of a wide range of investment vehicles, including venture capital funds, private equity funds, hedge funds, and family office structures. We assist fund managers and investors with all aspects of fund formation, from drafting constitutional documents to advising on regulatory requirements.

We provide bespoke legal solutions for family offices, high-net-worth individuals, and wealth management institutions across Asia. Our private wealth practice covers the establishment and structuring of family offices, estate planning, trust structures, and cross-border wealth management arrangements.
