Ashurst

We only have limited information for this firm. Consider the following firms which have provided more information:

Ashurst’s wide-ranging DCM practice, across both product lines and clients (which include issuers, underwriters, trustees and credit enhancement providers), ensures that relevant stakeholders receive a ‘very comprehensive and knowledgeable service’, which is cognisant of both legal and commercial considerations. ’Fantastic’ team head Jini Lee is emblematic of this diversified approach, being as comfortable handling bonds across all currencies and MTN and commercial paper programmes, as she is advising on liability management exercises (buybacks, tender offers and consent solicitations) and equity-linked transactions. ‘Seasoned veteran’ Jessica Li is also a very important part of the team, particularly in light of her skill at handling novel transactions, including as it relates to FTZ and Lotus bonds.
