Ogier acts in Foxconn Industrial Internet Co Ltd IPO – China’s biggest IPO in year
Ogier’s Hong Kong team have acted as counsel in connection with Foxconn Industrial Internet’s RMB 27 billion (US$ 4.3 billion) initial public offering (IPO) on the Shanghai Stock Exchange.
Partner and Head of Corporate for Asia Nathan Powell and Senior Associate Carmen Leung provided Cayman Islands and BVI legal advice for the IPO, which is China’s largest domestic listing since 2015.
Commenting on the listing, Nathan said:
“This was an exciting transaction to work on. Not only was it the largest since 2015 – and the fourth largest Chinese IPO in the past ten years – but Foxconn obtained regulatory approval in a record-breaking five weeks compared with the usual one to two year waiting period for most IPO applicants.”
Foxconn Industrial Internet, which makes electronic devices, cloud service equipment and industrial robots, is a subsidiary of the world’s largest contract manufacturer Foxconn.
