Financial and corporate

Founded in 1861,Dentons Rodyk & Davidsonis the oldest law firm in Singapore. It has diverse financial and corporate offerings and is particularly strong in banking and finance and project development. The firm forms part of the Dentons ASEAN network, which also includes Dentons HPRP in Indonesia, Zain & Co in Malaysia, and Dentons Myanmar.  

Highlights  

Recent examples of the firm’s deal work include advising HSBC Institutional Trust Services (Singapore) in relation to the issue of sustainability-linked guaranteed bonds. The bonds are unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed by the Credit Guarantee and Investment Facility (CGIF), a trust fund of the Asian Development Bank. The bonds are the first SGD-denominated CGIF-guaranteed sustainability linked bonds in Asia, the first listed CGIF-guaranteed bonds aligned to the ASEAN Sustainability-Linked Bonds Standards, and the first CGIF-guaranteed bonds issued by an industrial REIT in Asia. The bonds are also the issuer’s first non-sukuk bond offering.  

The firm also acted as lead counsel to Nasdaq-listed Stagwell in its strategic acquisition of ADK Global, a premier Japan-based advertising and marketing group with operations across 10 jurisdictions. This landmark transaction is Stagwell’s inaugural acquisition in the Asia-Pacific region and required sophisticated legal structuring to navigate multi-jurisdictional challenges, including foreign ownership restrictions, merger control filings, and capital repatriation requirements.
