Historic attitudes favouring globalisation are fundamentally changing....
London-based Watson, Farley will be opening its first Middle East office when it establishes the office. Asset finance partner Andrew Baird located to Dubai in April and will be running the office. He will be helped by two associates who specialise in, respectively, maritime/offshore and asset/Islamic finance.
Liquidity
Chris Lowe, managing partner at Watson, Farley, said: ‘Dubai, the UAE and the Middle East more generally, act as a leading financial centre in the modern global economy and represent a key hub of activity for our specialist sectors. With the lingering lack of liquidity in some of the more traditional banking markets around the world, the Middle East is an even more vital source of funding. This is something our clients recognise, and we have responded by ensuring we have an on-the-ground presence.’ Source: Legal Business
