Between the corporate and the banking and finance teams at Bowmans, domestic and international fund managers, private equity houses, management companies, banks and financial institutions can be assured of comprehensive M&A and transactional support, and advice on corporate, securities and regulatory law. Managing partner Fazil Hossenkhan is highly experienced in the regulatory framework for investment funds, financial services and capital markets in Mauritius, specialising in fund formations, while cross-border and general financing expert Gilles Athaw heads the banking and financing practice. Shianee Calcutteea is a top choice for corporate and banking law, Rajiv Gujadhur focuses on regulatory compliance, M&A and restructuring, and Javed Niamut, who was promoted to partner in March 2023, particularly excels in corporate tax law. The addition of Dave Boolauky to the firm in March 2023 further reinforced it for contentious work.
