Livingstone Goes East with China Office
Mid-market M&A advisers establish Beijing Team
Livingstone Partners has announced the launch of Livingstone Beijing through a joint venture with established local investment bank Baron Group. Livingstone has worked successfully with Baron for more than six years.
The Livingstone Beijing team joins the firm’s existing international offices in Chicago,
Dusseldorf and Madrid and gives clients access to the most acquisitive state-owned and private sector groups and investors across China and Hong Kong. The office will be staffed with a combination of Baron and Livingstone team members.
Phillip McCreanor, Partner at Livingstone London commented: “It was important to us to have our own physical presence and we are delighted to enhance our service to clients in this way by joining-up with a trusted local expert.”
The joint venture with Baron means that Livingstone staff will be working hand-in-hand with Baron in Beijing and Hong Kong, leveraging its existing relationships with many of China’s most expansive groups.
Jade Wang, Head of M&A for Baron in China commented: “There is a lot of interest among Chinese groups, many of them in the Industrial and Consumer Product sectors, in acquiring established businesses across the Western economies. With China’s domestic market evolving fast, the population of cross-border Chinese purchasers is modest but growing rapidly. Livingstone’s clients now have access to this exciting audience while Baron improves its access to interesting overseas investment opportunities for our acquisitive Chinese clients.”
