Reading Time : 1 min

Welcome to The International Dispatch. This edition looks at two broad themes: emerging market investing and multi-jurisdictional regulation and enforcement.

Investor confidence in China and Africa over the past year has continued to rise, and investors are looking for ways to maximize growth opportunities in these key regions. This edition includes editorial pieces that take a broad look at structuring investments into Africa, as well as practical ways to efficiently extract returns from Chinese investments.

Equally as prevalent in the mind of those within the funds industry is the current regulatory climate and what the future may hold. This edition brings to light developing regulation in the EU with a summary of recent legislative developments, as well as an in-depth review of the UK’s insider dealing regime.

We are proud to advise clients who operate in diverse global markets. By analyzing recent developments in specific markets and geographies and placing them into a wider global context, we are able to provide our clients with comprehensive global-data to help them place current trends in context and plan for their future success.

We hope that you enjoy this edition of The International Dispatch, and we welcome any feedback, comments and  suggestions for future editorial pieces.
