Ogier points to busy period for listed funds

Posted: 14/06/2021

CraigCordle_OgierApr19Ogier's listed funds team in Guernsey has reported that it has advised on secondary fundraisings by three of its listed funds clients in as many months.

The fundraises, carried out by Hipgnosis Songs Fund, Chrysalis Investments and The Schiehallion Fund, have raised around £875m between them. 

Secondary fundraisings are fresh capital raises by listed companies, often raising money from existing shareholders and giving the opportunity for new investors unable to participate in the initial public offering, or investors who have been unable to gain exposure through the market, to purchase new shares. 

Ogier Partner Craig Cordle (pictured) commented: "It's been a busy time for Guernsey listed funds over the past few months. It's great to see the continued success of our listed clients and substantial demand from investors. 

"There is a huge amount of talent located in Guernsey in the listed space, and we are looking forward to an even busier second half of the year." 

Guernsey is home of the most London Stock Exchange listed vehicles outside of the UK.
