Latham Again Wins “International Deal Firm of the Year” Award
For the second consecutive year, Asian Legal Business named Latham & Watkins “International Deal Firm of the Year” at its 2015 Southeast Asia Law Awards. The award was received in recognition of Latham’s record of success in the region and significant cross-border transactional achievements.
In addition, the firm advised on the “Overall Deal of the Year” and the “Project Finance Deal of the Year,” both of which were awarded to the US$7.4 billion financing for the construction of the Roy Hill iron ore project in the Pilbara region of Western Australia. Latham represented Roy Hill and the project sponsors, Hancock Prospecting, Marubeni, POSCO and CSC, in connection with the transaction.
