Lawyer Rankings
South Korea > Capital markets: local firms
Shin & Kim’s capital markets group handles the full range of work, with the team advising securities firms, investment banks, issuers, and originators in relation to IPOs, rights offerings, bond issuances, and securitisations. The group continues to handle IPOs, particularly in the tech sector, despite unfavourable market conditions, as well as expand into new areas, including samurai bonds. Practice head Tae-Yong Seo has a stellar reputation as ‘one of the top capital markets experts‘ in Korea and is noted particularly for handling IPOs and bond issuances. Both Jong-Uk Lee and Kevin(Woo Hyuk) Choi stand out for their asset-backed securities and covered bonds expertise, regularly representing arrangers and originators. Yong Jin Park, Sang Yeon Eom, and Cho Seong Eun all play key roles in the team, handling domestic and cross-border ECM and DCM transactions.
