In addition to IPOs, Noerr's capital markets expertise also includes capital increases and subscription rights issues; the practice recently saw an increase in instructions on the banking side, but nonetheless still has numerous companies among its clients. Holger Alfes is experienced in ECM as well as in M&A and financing transactions and jointly leads the practice with Julian Schulze De la Cruz, who advises shareholders, banks and listed companies. Philip Schmoll is another key contact, particularly for corporate- and compliance-related matters.
