Predictions for capital markets in 2022

Following a “very active” year, capital markets lawyers should be preparing themselves for a “really interesting” 2022, says one leading partner, who notes that the Australian market will “always support” the right transactions. On this episode of The Lawyers Weekly Show, host Jerome Doraisamy is joined by Baker McKenzie partner Antony Rumboll, who returns to the podcast to discuss the year that was in capital markets, whether the lessons from 2020 were still applicable this year, how secondary capital raisings unfolded in 2021, how predicted increases to interest rates will impact upon transactions, and the evolving nature of leadership for lawyers in this space. The pair also dissect the evolving nature of relationships with clients, predictions for the capital markets space in 2022 and the daily experience of lawyers, how best those lawyers can adapt to those predictions and better serve clients, and what there is to look forward to in the new year.
