Regulatory
From the GC
"The financing was from London, the assets were in Zambia and Australia, and the offtake agreement was governed by Singaporean law. WLA co-practice meant we had the right legal expert in each jurisdiction already working as one team — the transaction would have been impossible to coordinate otherwise."
