Capital Markets: Equity

About

Provided by Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP & Affiliates

Skadden’s German capital markets practice features German- and U.S.-qualified lawyers with several decades of experience handling complex cross-border equity, equity-linked and debt capital markets transactions in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, particularly involving a strong U.S. component (either U.S. listings or private placements). We advise issuers on corporate, financing, governance and structuring matters to establish capital markets readiness (particularly in the pre-IPO phase). Our attorneys also counsel issuers and underwriters on a broad range of capital markets transactions — including IPOs, secondary share placements, capital increases, equity-linked transactions, high-yield financings (under U.S. and German law) and other global equity and debt offerings — and provide ongoing German and U.S. securities law advice. In addition, Skadden’s capital markets team handles dual listings, SPAC and de-SPAC transactions, depositary receipt programs, redomiciliations and delistings and works closely with the firm’s M&A and Private Equity Groups to deliver seamlessly integrated client service.
