Mallesons Stephen Jaques has acted on BT Investment Limited's (BTIM) $275 million entitlement offer, advising the underwriters Macquarie Capital (Australia) Limited and UBS AG, Australia Branch.
The Mallesons team was led by Partners David Friedlander and Shannon Finch, who were assisted by Senior Associate Jonathan Grant and Solicitors Amanda Isouard and Jessica Hudson.
Ms Finch said "the deal has some interesting features arising out of the ownership structure. It demanded a nimble and co-operative approach between the legal teams".
The funds raised will help finance BTIM's $314 million landmark acquisition of J O Hambro Capital Management Limited, a privately owned, London-based equity investment manager.
