Global reach, local expertise

With a presence in 39 countries and six of the world's key financial centres, we work on our client's behalf to deliver the most effective solutions, however complex the deal or wherever it takes place.

Our network of specialists understand the social, political, economic and regulatory environments across the varied countries in which their clients operate. We think creatively, tailoring solutions to meet their needs and risk appetite.

That's why in 2011, we have been at the forefront of many of the year's most significant transactions; from acquisitions, equity stakes and private placements to refinancing, privatisations, bond issuances and revolving credit facilities. 

And in Asia last year, we completed one out of every three Indian foreign-currency bond issues, including the country's biggest corporate and financial institutions bond sales.

It is also why our client stories reveal such an impressive range of cross-border and cross-functional transactions - from risk management and trading approaches that proactively respond to market movements, to innovative capital raising and emerging market entry strategies.
