Linklaters former finance partner Nigel Pridmore has joined Ashurst in Hong Kong, following in the footsteps of London debt capital markets (DCM) colleague Francis Kucera, who left the Magic Circle firm for Ashurst in December 2013.
Pridmore, who has been a partner at Linklaters since 1998 and was based in Hong Kong between 2006 and 2010 before relocating to London, specialises in advising investment banks, corporations and sovereigns on complex DCM transactions. He left the 2,536-lawyer firm in February.
