Sidley has announced the appointment of David Stewart as a partner in its Capital Markets practice in London. Stewart joins from Latham & Watkins LLP, where he was co-chair of their London corporate practice. His expertise spans complex transactions in public markets from fixed income products to international listed equity.
Yvette Ostolaza, Sidley's Management Committee chair, highlighted Stewart's 'international capital markets practice across Europe, the U.S., and the Middle East' as highly complementary to Sidley's global offerings. Tom Thesing, managing partner of Sidley's London office, noted Stewart's arrival as 'representative of the firm’s continued investment in growing our London office.'
Sidley has made significant additions to its London team over the past year, including eight Leveraged Finance partners and other key figures from Latham & Watkins LLP. The firm aims to enhance its capabilities to meet the financing needs of its clients.
