Walkers has won the Best Offshore Law Firm category at the With Intelligence HFM European Services Awards, reaffirming our top-tier reputation in Europe and globally.

With the ceremony hosted at the iconic Natural History Museum in London last night (25 April), the ceremony is now in its 15th year. The awards reflect excellence in European hedge fund services and focus on shortlisting the top performers in the sector, with an independent judging panel deciding on the finalists.

Matthew Bloomfield, a partner in our Investment Funds team, said:

“It’s wonderful to see our efforts recognised by the With Intelligence HFM European Services Awards. I'd like to also congratulate the other firms who were shortlisted – the industry has seen some fantastic work over the past year."

Tatziana Paraguacuto,Partner and Co-Head of the Investment Funds Group in London,commented:

"Everything we do is to secure our clients the very best outcome possible, so to have our achievements celebrated in this way is the icing on the cake.”

The award comes as we celebrate 60 years since our firm was established in 1964, with a recent celebration for clients and esteemed colleagues held at the Kimpton Seafire Resort in the Cayman Islands. In February, our Singapore office marked 15 years in the region with a convivial client event.

Walkers also improved its standings in the leading independent legal directory, Chambers & Partners, by doubling its Eminent Practitioner and Band 1 rankings in the 2024 Chambers Global Guide.
