Beijing
Livingstone Beijing is a joint venture between the firm and local mid-market investment bank Baron Group, involving dedicated team members from both organisations working together from an office in the centre of the city. Beijing is not only the political heart of China but the home of many of the country’s largest state-owned enterprises, financial institutions and is a major industrial centre in its own right.
The Livingstone team has positioned itself as an important conduit through which our Western sell-side clients can access the growing number of acquisitive Chinese groups – many of them state-owned – which are eager to develop new international markets and secure cutting-edge skills, processes and intellectual properties and with the proactive support of the Chinese government.
While the domestic Chinese M&A market is still in its most formative stages, the Beijing team advises successful Chinese enterprises that are seeking international partners – whether strategic or financial – to accelerate the development of their businesses while providing those partners with a platform for growth in the most dynamic economy in the world.
Livingstone Beijing also works closely with Baron Group’s established M&A team in Hong Kong, where it also has an accomplished small- and mid-cap IPO capability. The China joint venture currently consists of two Livingstone and four Baron employees.
