Details

The “Hong Kong IPO Guide 2013″ is just out, published by LexisNexis. This is the second edition of the guide, of which I was already a co-author in 2012.

The Hong Kong IPO Guide 2013 takes a comprehensive view of the Hong Kong IPO process, from consideration of a listing in Hong Kong to conducting pre-IPO restructuring, selecting bankers, legal and auditing advisers, and financial printing and communications experts, to proceeding with the IPO and preparing for continuing obligations after listing.

The aim of this guide is to help companies interested in listing in Hong Kong understand what needs to be done at each stage – and to gain control of the process.

The guide is published in association with a number of prestigious institutes and advisers, including, among others, the Hong Kong Institute of Directors, the Hong Kong Corporate Counsel Association, the Hong Kong Chinese Enterprises Association, the Hong Kong Institute of Bankers, the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants, the Hong Kong Institute of Chartered Secretaries and the Hong Kong Securities and Investment Institute.

Philippe Espinasse spent more than 19 years working as a senior investment banker, including for S.G.Warburg (now UBS Investment Bank), Macquarie and Nomura as a Managing Director, Head of Equity Corporate Finance and Head of Equity Capital Markets.

Throughout his career, he has successfully completed more than 140 corporate finance transactions, including many billion-dollar privatisation and private sector IPOs, equity and equity-linked fund raisings, real estate investment trusts, infrastructure funds, principal and pre-IPO investments, M&A and advisory transactions, euro- and domestic bond issues and debt private placements.

He has marketed to issuers, and/or executed, capital markets offerings across some 30 jurisdictions, including Australia, Austria, Bahrain, Brunei, France, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Italy, the Republic of Korea, Luxembourg, Macau, Malaysia, the Netherlands, Panama, the People’s Republic of China, the Philippines, Portugal, Russia, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, the United Arab Emirates, the UK, the US and Vietnam.

Philippe lives in Hong Kong, where he writes and works as an independent consultant. He contributes regular columns to the Dow Jones Investment Banker global news platform and the South China Morning Post. His articles have also been published on WSJ.com, in The Wall Street Journal and on the website of BBC News. He has appeared on Bloomberg Television, on Reuters Television and on Hong Kong's RTHK radio.
