Firm: King & Wood Mallesons (Suncorp Group)
Area: Capital markets
Value: $290 million
Key players: The KWM team was led by partners Ian Paterson and Rhys Casey, who were supported by senior associates Matt McKeown and Kathryn Tomasic and solicitors Kate Cincotta and Andrew Chong. Bryony Evans and Charles Davies handled the transitional services aspects of the transaction.
Deal significance: Speaking about the transactions, Mr Casey said: “It has been a busy period supporting Suncorp on these important deals, which have been executed against the backdrop of the devastating flood events and somewhat volatile global capital markets.
“Ultimately, both transactions support Suncorp’s strategy of focussing on its insurance and banking customers.”
