Ogier's global equity capital markets team has significant experience in advising on the listings of both operating companies and special purpose acquisition companies (SPACs) on NYSE and NASDAQ.
With record setting years in 2017 and 2018 for SPAC offerings in the United States, strong demand continued into 2019 alongside a healthy cross-border deal flow facilitating a stream of major IPO mandates. We anticipate that robust SPAC activity will continue into 2020.
With offices in the Caribbean, Channel Islands, London, Europe and Hong Kong, our international legal teams seamlessly bridge the US, Asian and European time zones.

Ogier’s Cayman team advised on $143,750,000 ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp. IPO listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market
Ogier’s BVI team advised on the $200 million IPO on the NASDAQ Capital Market of Electrum Special Acquisition Corp.
In its largest and most complex BVI SPAC acquisition to date, Ogier's BVI team was counsel to NASDAQ-listed National Energy Services Reunited Corp. on its acquisition of Gulf Energy SAOC and National Petroleum Services, a deal shortlisted for M&A deal of the year in the IFLR Middle East Awards 2019.
"Working with a company and its management team from creation, through to public offering then a major acquisition in a relatively short period was tremendously exciting and almost unique to the SPAC world," said lead partner Michael Killourhy.
Ogier advised Clarivate Analytics on the Jersey law aspects of the merger and listing of the newly incorporated Jersey company, Clarivate Analytics plc. The new company is one of a growing number of Jersey companies admitted to trading on the NYSE.
"The increased interest in using Jersey companies for listings on the US markets shows a growing acceptance of the jurisdiction and an understanding of the benefits in using such vehicles," said lead partner Richard Daggett.
