WongPartnership LLP ‘understands commercial concerns and does not give textbook solutions’, remaining a dominant force in equity and debt capital markets offerings. It continues to land many of the prime engagements in Singapore and plays anchor roles on deals across the region, including equity offerings in Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia. REITs and business trust offerings have been a driving force of the firm’s practice over recent years, though it has an active presence in all major sectors and product areas. It has also made an impression in de-SPAC transactions. The firm represents a multitude of issuers and underwriters, including local, regional and international banks. Hui Choon Yuen heads the financial services group and is a leading name in debt offerings and debt issuance programmes. Gail Ong is a senior figure in equity offerings. Karen Yeoh, James Choo and Trevor Chuan are also key partners.
