Davis Polk's London office, which opened in 1973, is our largest non-U.S. office and the headquarters of our Europe practice. The lawyers in our London office represent companies and financial institutions on a wide range of corporate transactions throughout Europe and further afield in India and South Africa.
Our London-based capital markets lawyers advise major issuers and underwriters throughout Europe on global offerings of equity and securities. We also develop innovative securities that allow European financial institutions to meet regulatory capital requirements efficiently and advise these clients on cross-border payment, settlement and risk-management issues.
Our London office has also been involved in some of the largest European M&A transactions in recent years. Our M&A lawyers advise large and small corporations, private equity funds and merchant banks on investments.
The London office is an integral part of the firm's global technology practice. We advise European technology companies in cross-border capital markets, mergers and acquisitions and private equity transactions. Our global corporate finance experience has allowed us to creatively and successfully adapt U.S.-developed financing techniques to the needs of European technology companies.
