Meng Ding > Sidley Austin > Hong Kong, Hong Kong > Lawyer Profile

Led by vastly experienced corporate and finance partner Constance Choy, Sidley Austin‘s Hong Kong-based Greater China capital markets is praised for its ‘strong business capabilities and high levels of professionalism’ and ability to ‘work closely with issuers, investment banks and intermediaries’.  As well as handling conventional ECM matters, the firm, which is ‘very farsighted about innovation’, has been at the vanguard of new and reformed listing regimes relating both to SPACs and dual primary listings. The ‘extremely knowledgeable’ Meng Ding, who has a professional background in physics, has been key to these frontier areas, taking the lead on numerous high-profile transactions, including with regard to US capital markets-related de-SPAC and PIPE financing processes. Leveraging strong regulatory ties, Sherlyn Lau is very active handling HKEX IPOs across a wide range of sectors for issuers and underwriters alike.
