Thanathip & Partners has managed to snap up a good number of the relatively few equity mandates available in the market this year.

Name partner Khun Thanathip receives high praise from clients. “He and his team have a very good commercial business sense,” says one. “This allows them to deliver top quality service and provide sound advice to clients and banks.”

In one key transaction over the past year, the Thanathip team represented Symphony Communication on its Thailand IPO. The Baht 633.6 million (US$21.2 million) offering from the leading premium fiber optics and network equipment provider was the first time that a high speed communication company had listed on the Thai Stock Exchange.

Name partner Thanathip Pichedvanichok heads Thanathip & Partners’ M&A team, which is known for its relationships with major regional companies and banks. Pichedvanichok recently advised OSK Group on a potential acquisition of approximately a 48.90% interest in BFIT Securities from Bangkok First Investment & Trust.
