Watson Burton advises on trio of international investment deals

Newcastle-headquartered law firm Watson Burton has advised on a trio of investment deals, totaling over $11m, for London-based investment management and advisory company Arie Capital Ltd.

Watson Burton’s team provided all round legal support to Arie Capital which organised investments on behalf of Singapore-based Golden Arie Hi Tech Investments Pte Ltd, a technology-oriented company focusing on connectivity, mobile and data transmission innovative technologies.

Duncan Reid, head of corporate at Watson Burton, said: “We were delighted to be able to support Arie Capital Limited and to see the three deals reach a successful outcome for all parties involved.

“We were able to draw on our investment experience, understanding of the technology sector and commercial acumen to ensure that the investment process ran as smoothly as possible in each instance – and we supported the Arie Capital team every step of the way.”

Simon Tobelem of Arie Capital Limited, who is now an investor director at each of the investee companies, added: “Watson Burton’s expertise in dealing with major investments, coupled with its high level of commercial awareness, was demonstrated throughout their work with us.

“Watson Burton provided practical advice and guidance on the three investments and worked with us hand in hand to complete these complex international transactions. Their approach was greatly appreciated.”
