The ‘technically strong’ team at Ashurst is ’extremely responsive’ and provides ‘very clear and comprehensive advice’ to issuers and underwriters on Greater Chinese-related international debt issuances. The scope of this work is broad and has recently included a number green and digital bond issuances, an area where the firm is particularly well-positioned by virtue not only of its transactional strength but also its ability to leverage deep fintech regulatory expertise. Leveraging ’deep industry knowledge’, Jini Lee is at the forefront of much of this work and is also very adept at advising on transactions throughout Southeast Asia. Lee co-heads the team alongside Patrick Phua. Jessica Li has since left the firm.
