ALLENS Arthur Robinson has replaced the head of its M&A and capital markets groups, with the former top man stepping back to partner level.
Sydney-based partner Guy Alexander has been appointed co-practice group leader at the firm, replacing Ewen Crouch in the top job. Crouch, however, remains a big player at the firm, retaining his chairman role. Alexander will also be co-practice group leader and co-head of the M&A team with Melbourne-based partner Jon Webster. “We are rearranging the MAC team across industry lines so that we can further aggressively pursue opportunities in the marketplace,” Alexander said. Alexander said Allens has a depth of talent and breadth of experience, pointing to the firm’s placement in the top 10 in three M&A global league tables. He said Crouch had made a significant contribution in leading the group to the head of the market and “making sure that a succession plan was in place to ensure a seamless transition”.
