He has advised underwriters and issuers on a range of international capital markets transactions across India, Asia Pacific (Apac) and Australasia, according to an April 15 media release.

James Doyle, head of Hogan Lovells’ corporate & finance practice, said in the media release: “He joins one of the largest fully integrated global platforms of any law firm and will enhance our DCM practice, bringing additional experience and capacity to our capital markets team in the Apac region.”
Julian Craughan, Hogan Lovell's head of capital markets, international, added: “Phill’s experience and excellent track record make him a great fit for our practice – boosting our DCM offering in India and Southeast Asia, and complementing our highly-rated ECM practice in the region."
Meanwhile, Siew Kam Boon, Singapore office managing partner, said, “Phill’s arrival follows closely on our other strategic hires into Southeast Asia in recent months, including Rob Palmer, Charmian Aw, David Harrison, Timothy Goh, Thomas Kin and myself, and underscores the firm’s increased capabilities in Singapore and our ongoing commitment to the broader Apac region.”
