Shearman & Sterling’s London office has taken the lead advising New York-listed global exchange and clearing house operator IntercontinentalExchange (ICE) on its initial public offering (IPO) of pan-European exchange group Euronext on Euronext Paris, Brussels and Amsterdam, for what ICE says is likely to be valued at in excess of $2bn.
Led by London capital markets partner David Dixter, the Shearman team also includes capital markets associate Jonathan Handyside, with the heavily regulated deal also being advised on by head of the financial institutions and financial regulatory group Barney Reynolds, working with counsel Azad Ali.
