Houthoff’s equity capital markets offering has both specialist corporate practitioner Alexander Kaarls, who is experienced advising international companies on ECM transactions, and equity and debt capital markets expert and ‘dedicated and trusted adviser’ Jetty Tukker at its helm. The practice is experienced in assisting clients on the breadth of related matters, including on IPOs, SPAC, and de-SPAC transactions and investments, as well as in matters involving secondary offerings, and tax relocations and conversions. Additionally, the team supports in matters of general regulatory compliance therein. The cases the team handles are consistently cross-border in nature; ’deal-driven’ counsel Willem Liedenbaum frequently supports on such work.
