Rimon is pleased to welcome securities and capital markets Counsel, Olivia Y. Wang, to the firm.
Olivia has significant experience advising clients on a wide range of corporate and securities matters, including initial public offerings and other registered securities offerings, de-SPACs, private placements, mergers and acquisitions, public company reporting, and corporate governance matters. Olivia has a particular focus on transactions in Asia, which have collectively raised over $5 billion of capital, and is one of the most experienced capital markets attorneys advising Asian companies on SPAC deals.
She has prior experience at Kirkland & Ellis and Baker McKenzie, where she advised domestic and international companies in industries such as technology, life sciences, clean energy, financial services, consumer products, education, and entertainment.
Olivia is admitted to practice in New York and will soon be based in San Francisco. She will work with the firm’s securities and capital markets practice, with a particular focus on clients from Asia.
“Olivia has deep international experience and will be a great addition to our growing global securities and capital markets practice,” said Rimon Managing Partner, Juan Zúñiga. “We are very pleased to welcome her to the firm.”
“Olivia has a well-rounded and highly respected capital markets practice that aligns well with our existing Securities and Capital Markets teams. Her practice will support clients through IPOs, public company reporting and sophisticated public M&A transactions across our platform,” said Debbie Klis, partner in Rimon’s Securities and Capital Markets Group. “We are very excited to have a lawyer with her skillset and client-centered approach join our team.”
Olivia commented on her move: “As a highly global, full-service law firm, Rimon offers a unique combination of an all-star partnership team across all major practice areas, a consistent commitment to high-quality client service, and the ability to offer competitive, client-centric pricing. The firm’s top-notch corporate and securities practice, extensive SPAC experience, especially with Asian clients, and well-established China practice are also a great fit for me.”
