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.

I joined Child & Child in October 2024 as a Senior Associate in the Regulatory Department, bringing over 14 years of experience in professional conduct. I have previously worked at the Solicitors Regulation Authority in a number of roles and was part of the SRA’s Regulatory Management Team, responsible for the Regulatory Supervision and investigation of the UK’s top 200 law firms. I moved to private practice in 2015, and I act for a broad range of professional individuals and professional services firms. This includes providing guidance and support around regulatory investigations, regulatory reporting, complex areas of regulatory compliance, professional ethics, and I provide specialist training on all aspects of regulatory responsibilities and compliance. I pride myself on providing expert, tailored guidance and support to all my clients in an area that is forever changing and evolving and during a time that is often quite challenging and stressful for clients.
