Capital Markets
Legal advice on capital markets for businesses operating in Uzbekistan.
Overview
Capital Markets advice for businesses operating in Uzbekistan.
Raising capital through an issue of securities imposes disclosure obligations on the issuer that continue long after the funds are received. The quality of the initial disclosure determines the issuer’s exposure to investor claims later.
Digests Global Law Firm advises issuers, shareholders and financial intermediaries on the issue and placement of securities under the legislation of the Republic of Uzbekistan.
Our capital markets practice covers:
- Issues of shares and corporate bonds, and their state registration
- Public offerings and private placements
- Preparation of prospectuses and disclosure documents
- Due diligence on the issuer in preparation for an issue
- Admission to trading on the Republican Stock Exchange “Toshkent”
- Continuing disclosure obligations of issuers, and corporate governance requirements
- Agreements with underwriters, investment intermediaries and registrars
- Requirements of the Agency for the Development of the Capital Market
- Cross-border placements, and the treatment of foreign investors
We advise on the disclosure the legislation requires and on the statements that create exposure if they are not sustainable.
