Law firm Walkers has appointed Carol Hall as head of its newly-formed investment funds group in Hong Kong.
Hall has more than 17 years’ experience in mergers and acquisitions, corporate finance and investment funds, including 11 years specifically in Hong Kong.
She specialises in hedge funds and private equity funds and has led the development of Walkers’ hedge funds practice in Hong Kong since joining as a partner in 2005.
Hall will be supported in her role by partner Denise Wong who has a focus on hedge funds, private equity funds and all areas of corporate transactions.
"Asia and Hong Kong in particular have been considerable focal points for Walkers’ growth in recent years and we have received an excellent response from our clients in this region," says Hall. "The combination of specialist hedge fund and private equity attorneys within Walkers’ investment funds group will ensure we continue to provide advice that is commercially aware and technically excellent. We will also look for ways to add value, with a focus on responsiveness, which have always been hallmarks of Walkers’ client service model."
