Equity Capital Markets

When raising money from investors, you’re asking them to bet on the success of your company. You may be wanting to grow markets, develop a new product, finance a project or make a financial injection in case of a rainy day. Equity capital markets offer alternatives to borrowing from a bank. But they are highly regulated and require experienced advisors to guide company executives through the detail. Getting it wrong puts your company’s reputation at risk and jeopardises your chances of raising funds from investors in the future.

Equity capital market lawyers are crucial to the success of raising funds, whether it’s through a share issue or convertible instruments. With many years of experience, our lawyers make deals simple and pragmatic, so you can get on with growing and developing your business.
