CORPORATE FINANCE
Our office collaborates with our clients on a variety of financial instruments and products to realize their capital raising, monetization, hedging strategies, and compliance with the legal and regulatory developments affecting capital market exchanges. We assist our clients with complex transactions involving initial public offerings, SPACs and other equity financings, equity and debt securities, convertible bond, options agreements, private placement and registered transactions, SPVs, rights offerings, direct listing, and exit options. Furthermore, we advise clients on Islamic financing instruments, which include murabaha, mudaraba, ijara, wakala, musharaka, istithmar, manafa, sukuk, and istisna – whether on a standalone basis, in combination with other products, on a wholly Islamic basis, or as a multi-tranche offering with conventional financing arrangements.
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Entrepreneurs and high-net-worth individuals seek our advice on matters ranging from choosing the legal formation of their business enterprises to complex domestic and cross-border transactions. Our services include assisting investors in establishing new companies, guiding general meetings and corporate and internal governance, drafting stock and capital agreements, joint venture agreements, stock option plans, establishing legal relationships between affiliates, and designing corporate restructuring.
MERGERS & ACQUISITIONS
We provide legal advice on the complete spectrum of the M&A process, including mergers, consolidations, demergers, or entity transformations. We advise our clients on lease and sale agreements for assets, ownership interests, and company shares. Our M&A processes and services regularly include a detailed transaction structure, advice on industry-specific acquisitions, due diligence and legal audits, drafting and negotiating transaction documents, merger control and compliance, and post-acquisition advisory services.
