IPO stands for “Initial Public Offering”. An IPO is defined as the process of selling the first shares of a private company to access the general public markets. It could be a new, young company or an old company which decides to be publicly listed on a recognized stock exchange. Thus, an IPO is also commonly known as “going public.”
Planning to choose a suitable stock market to submit an IPO is a crucial decision as your company shall have an opportunity to involve in the equity capital market, especially the international capital market. This stock market can be also considered as the platform for your company to raise funds with growth potential and development prospects.
To conclude, upon the demand of many companies, the Hong Kong IPO Vietnamese advisory service plays an integral part in providing high-quality legal advice to companies that wish to raise capital for their sustainable development of the cash flow.
Global Vietnam Lawyers brings a full range of advisory services for Hong Kong IPO which assist your company in a standard listing process. Accordingly, Global Vietnam Lawyers supports and conducts due diligence on the Company or the group of Companies and identify issues in legal and regulatory compliance, simple and complex management structure, governance apparatus, contribution of capital (the contribution increases the owner’s equity interest in the business), relevant regulatory compliance, general legal matters on labour and employment, all material contracts, asset and intellectual property rights (IPRs), and tax compliance work as well.
To execute a successful Hong Kong IPO process, Global Vietnam Lawyers not only support for the due diligence but also assist in drafting and reviewing relevant sections of the prospectus and other IPO and listing documents (Application Proof, or “AP”) and rendering legal opinions on matters of the Hong Kong IPO process.
IPO and listing on HKEx is also a recent trend of capital mobilization of corporation having operating subsidiaries incorporated in developing countries like Vietnam. It is worth noting that thanks to the strict supervision and guidance of the competent management authorities, the operating subsidiaries located in industrial parks in Vietnam tend to have a higher level of compliance with local compliance regulations (environmental protection, labor and employment, fire prevention and fire-fighting, hygiene and safety, etc.) than the ones located outside industrial parks.
Some of typical successful deals: Global Vietnam Lawyers has been playing a key and active role in coordinating and working effectively with professional legal counsels, consulting agencies and other working parties in the relevant jurisdictions (US, UK, Europe, Australia, Cayman, BVI, China, Hong Kong, etc. and Vietnam) in supporting the Listco in filing and completing IPO and listing of securities, including legal due diligence, legal advice and compliance for the Listco; drafting and reviewing the IPO Prospectus; providing legal advice to the Listco, sponsor and underwriters of the IPO process when dealing with the restructuring before listing (where applicable) and issuing the Prospectus and throughout the listing process (Mainboard and GEM Board), as well as the HKEx and Securities and SFC; and provide other necessary legal advice for the whole process of IPO and listing for the following recently successful clients:
