Baker McKenzie advised GLP on up to USD 1.5 billion investment from Abu Dhabi Investment Authority
The global law firm, Baker McKenzie, acted as lead counsel to GLP Pte. Ltd. (GLP) in connection with Abu Dhabi Investment Authority’s (ADIA) investment of up to USD 1.5 billion in GLP.
As detailed in GLP’s press release, “GLP’s strong financial position will be enhanced by ADIA’s initial capital deployment of USD 500 million, which is expected to accelerate the Group’s mission of creating differentiated, scaled platforms across logistics, digital infrastructure and renewable energy – sectors benefitting from structural tailwinds driven by the expansion of e-commerce, accelerating adoption of AI/cloud technologies, and the global shift towards cleaner, more sustainable energy sources.”
The cross-border, multidisciplinary Baker McKenzie team advising GLP was led by Shirin Tang (Principal, Singapore, M&A and Private Equity) and Lip Kian Ang (Principal, Singapore, M&A and Private Equity), with support from Mark Tay (Local Principal, Singapore), Yong Wei Tan (Senior Associate, Singapore) and Allan Yang (Associate, Singapore).
The deal drew on the Firm’s regional transactional practices, including M&A, Private Equity, Banking & Finance, and Financial Services Regulatory across Singapore and Hong Kong.
Key Singapore team members included Emmanuel Hadjidakis (Principal, Banking & Finance), Ian Roebuck (Local Principal, Banking & Finance), Eunice Tan (Principal, Financial Services Regulatory), and Zhi Jia Koh (Associate, Financial Services Regulatory).
Key Hong Kong team members included Kenneth Ching (Partner, Banking & Finance), Gerry Wong (Partner, Banking & Finance), Elizabeth Hau (Associate), Suki Ng (Associate), Jason Ng (Partner, Private Equity and Funds), Hayley Irons (Special Counsel), Jojo Ha (Senior Associate), Agnes Yeung (Senior Associate), Grace Fung (Partner, Financial Services), and Erin Cao (Senior Associate).
This transaction highlights Baker McKenzie’s ability to mobilize top-tier lawyers across jurisdictions and practices to deliver outstanding results for clients.
