International languages 

Our team speaks English, Cantonese, Mandarin and Japanese to better service our Asian clients in their native languages. 

Our track record 

We regularly advise on the most significant and high-value cases and deals involving our jurisdictions' laws, including a lot of firsts. Some of our recent or high-profile work includes: 

• Our team in Hong Kong acting as Cayman counsel to China Shengmu Organic Milk Limited on the first successful issuance of social responsibility bonds as well as the first private enterprise "Panda Bonds" with credit risk mitigation warrant placement in China. 

• Our team in Hong Kong acting as Cayman Islands counsel to the International Finance Corporation (the IFC) on the launch of a US$100 million 10-year social bond - the Philippines' first ever social bond in the healthcare sector. 

• Advising Shuifa Group Co Ltd in its US$200 million green bond offering. 

• Advising on a merger bringing together China's two largest video game live-streaming platforms to create a single streaming platform with 300 million users and a dominant stake in the emerging esports market. 

Why Hong Kong? 

Hong Kong's low-tax status, free-market economy, infrastructure and proximity to China and Southeast Asia have ensured that it has maintained its primacy in the competitive financial services world. 

Ogier established a presence in Hong Kong at the start of 2006, recognising the use of Hong Kong companies in global and Asian business and its importance to global as well as Asian clients.
