Angus Macdonald
Consultant I qualified as a solicitor in Victoria, Australia in 1996, and in England in 2000, and I have been a consultant solicitor with Child & Child since May 2021. I have extensive experience in finance, corporate, and restructuring matters. I regularly advise on acquisitions, joint ventures, financings, and special situations including distressed lending, structured finance, funds and private equity. Prior to joining Child & Child, I was General Counsel of Scipion Capital, an asset manager focussed on commodity trade finance across Africa, and, before that, Group General Counsel of global trade merchant Gerald Metals and the private mining group Zamin. I also spent several years as a partner of Australian law firm, Chambers & Company, operating out of Melbourne, Perth and Beijing where I negotiated and documented many of the recent major mining and resources projects in Australia.  I also worked as a finance lawyer with law firms Mayer Brown and Clifford Chance in London, Hong Kong and Amsterdam. I am co-founder of a green metals merchant, recycler and investor based in Zug, Switzerland and a partner of a specialist commodities law firm (Mercatis). I am commercial and pro-active.
