Our capital markets expertise in the local market is second to none.
We have been active in Maltese capital markets since 1990, even before the inception of the Malta Stock Exchange. We have assisted more issuers seeking a listing on the official list of the Malta Stock Exchange than all of our competitors put together with a market share in excess of 50% of both equity and debt instruments listed and traded on the Malta Stock Exchange (45% of debt issuances and 100% of equity listings in 2024, and so far over 50% of debt issuances in 2025).
Our significant involvement in the area with clients having instruments listed on the Official List of the Malta Stock Exchange and the Institutional Financial Securities Market (IFSM) has established us as a first port of call for prospective issuers and clients aiming to raise capital in the market and to have their securities admitted to listing, as well as to advise issuers on
governance matters and compliance with changing regulatory requirements.
Our exposure and record in the market provides us with significant experience and insight into the dynamics of the market and the workings of the rules, through continuous interaction with the regulator. We have assisted the regulator in conducting revisions of the Capital Market Rules and the transposition of EU directives in those rules, and most recently have assisted the Malta Stock Exchange in revising its Green Bond framework, with a view to transitioning to a full suite of sustainable finance debt instruments.
Post-listing, we provide ongoing support to companies having instruments listed on the Official List of the Malta Stock Exchange and the Institutional Financial Securities Market (IFSM), advising the board and senior management on corporate governance and operational risk matters as well as their compliance with their continuing obligations under the capital market rules and Wholesale Securities Market (WSM) capital markets rules, as applicable.
In select cases our lawyers also act as company secretary of listed companies.
Our close collaboration with financial advisers, accountancy firms and stockbrokers over the years has given us an unrivalled experience in understanding the needs of all the players in that market.
