Appleby is delighted to welcome Grace Yeung who has joined the team to further strengthen the Hong Kong office's Investment Funds practice. This appointment follows the arrival of Partner Bronwyn King in June 2022 and Grace is the third investment funds specialist that Appleby has reunited from their previous firm.
Grace has more than 8 years' offshore and onshore experience specialising in investment funds, asset management, regulatory and general corporate transactions. In particular Grace's practice focuses on fund formation in the private equity, venture capital and hedge fund sectors. Prior to joining an offshore practice in 2017, Grace practiced as a Hong Kong lawyer at Morrison & Forester. Grace speaks fluent Cantonese, Mandarin and English.
This announcement marks yet another key appointment into the Investment Funds team in the past 15 months. Marc Parrott joined the team as Partner in June 2021 bringing over 20 years of offshore and onshore experience to the Appleby Investment Funds practice. In June 2022, Marc was joined by Partner and former colleague Bronwyn King, who with more than 15 years of offshore experience in investment funds further strengthened the team's capabilities.
Bronwyn commented: "It's an exciting time for the Appleby Investment Funds team as we continue to grow to deliver excellent service to our clients on their complex funds transactions. Grace is mature beyond her years, calm under pressure and a rising star in the offshore funds space. Grace makes a wonderful addition to our team."
Marc added, "Having worked together for a prolonged period previously, and gained great trust in her abilities, I am delighted to now have Grace join the Appleby Investment Funds team as we continue to work together to build an award-winning Asian funds practice."
