The Capital Markets practice group at The Capital Law Office is recognized as premier within Thailand and Southeast Asia for, the depth of our lawyers' regulatory expertise, the team's solutions-oriented and innovative execution capabilities, and the broad range of our sector expertise. We represent issuers and underwriters on domestic and cross-border issuance of equity, equity-linked products, debt instruments, and derivatives, and we excel in complex, first-of-a-kind transactions. Given the recent, challenging history of international financial markets, our legal team has demonstrated ingenuity in developing sector insight into the needs, challenges and legislative issues impacting successful industries in Thailand and surrounding countries. Clients are leaders in ICT, high-value manufacturing, energy, retail, petrochemicals, insurance, engineering, healthcare, real estate, mass transport, and F&B. We are also sought out as advisors given our experience on equity offerings under Rule 144A, Regulation S of the U.S. Securities Act. Significant recent deals include; the issuance of Exchangeable Bonds under Reg S for Indorama Ventures Plc. and its Mauritius parent; the 1st IPO/share swap in one transaction for Central Retail Corporation, and the 1st IPO on the SET for a Cambodian company, through representation of Samart Corporation. Business trends, challenges and opportunities evolve, but our guiding principles remain: Commitment -- Collaboration -- Integrity.
