AFTER FAILING over several years to build up a
London corporate practice, Dewey Ballantine
decided to go back to its core strength of finance in
2005.
However, London managing partner Fred Gander
still has the challenge of winning more lenderbased
work.
The office did see some notable successes in
the Middle East, such as acting on the first flotation
on the Dubai International Financial Exchange.
In Europe Gander secured the introduction of
fixed-rate currency rates for associates to protect
them against the sliding US dollar. This has been
extended to partners for the 2005-06 financial year.
In the UK the hedge is set at $1.70 to £1, while in
Europe $1.20 equals €1.
