King & Wood Mallesons‘ European arm has failed to complete its planned recapitalisation programme, which was paused last month after a number of partner departures.
In a statement the firm said: ‘Having completed its assessment, a revised plan was submitted to the EUME partnership under which the same level of new partner capital was required, but with the financial support of the verein member firms. Regrettably, insufficient value of new capital was committed.’
