Conyers Dill & Pearman advised Bank of Montreal on its acquisition of Hong Kong wealth management firm Lloyd George Management (LGM), which closed in April 2011.

Lawyers from Conyers’ corporate and funds practices advised on the laws of Cayman Islands, British Virgin Islands, Bermuda and Mauritius from several of the firm’s offices, working alongside Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer.
