It also advises clients on the regulatory aspects of M&A transactions and investments in the insurance and financial services sectors.

Notable practitioners

Mark Johnson is held in high regard by market commentators, who see him as a longstanding member of the financial services regulatory sphere. He is an of counsel and is primarily known for contentious matters, advising international banks, PRC corporates and brokers on share ownership disputes, and on HKEX, SFC and US DOJ investigations as well as internal investigations.

Gareth Hughes advises banks and financial institutions on internal investigations and reviews of regulatory obligations as part of his broader contentious practice. He is co-head of Debevoise & Plimpton's financial institutions department in Hong Kong.

 

His structured approach and strategic foresight reflected a high degree of sophistication - he clearly outlined next steps, ensuring that I was well prepared and represented throughout the process.
