Equity capital markets

Companies and underwriters operating in the equity markets need legal advisers with securities law and regulatory expertise coupled with in-depth knowledge of the markets and extensive industry experience. Our specialists in all relevant areas of the law offer all of these things. We have a strong track record of advising issuers, underwriters and shareholders on equity and equity-related transactions across a wide range of industry sectors. These include:

• listings
• initial public offerings
• secondary offerings
• equity linked securities
• convertible bonds

We work closely with corporate clients and banking professionals to structure and execute innovative financing solutions, drawing upon our relationships with numerous investment banks.

Our alliance with Herbert Smith and Gleiss Lutz enables us to operate an integrated equity capital markets team across continental Europe and benefit from a top-tier capital markets practice in Asia with specialists in Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Singapore and Tokyo.

Some members of our team are located in our London office, to ensure access to both the Netherlands and UK financial markets.
