Capital Markets Evolution: A Record Month! 10 Deals on Dealogic Connect

 Banks and investors embrace solution for automated connectivity

LONDON -Friday, June 2nd 2017 [ ME NewsWire ]

(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Banks and their investment firm clients spoke loudly in May: they chose financial platform company Dealogic to connect them electronically on 10 major deals—globally.

Dealogic Connect, which allows investors to place electronic indications of interest as well as reconcile and evaluate all sellside-provided activities, is growing fast. “We’re pleased at how quickly the industry is adopting Connect,” said Jody Drulard, Chief Product Officer. “We’re seeing major IPOs, like the largest telecom IPO in Europe this year, open for orders. In fact, we just had the first orders to joint bookrunners on Connect and the first electronic deal in Asia.”

One reason behind Dealogic Connect’s rapid adoption is the need for firms to comply with MiFID II directives by January 2018. This regulation requires research unbundling and associated proof of no inducements by banks to investors.

Dealogic Connect offers:

    Allocation Justification: banks can demonstrate order timing and allocation rationale
    Transaction Reporting: banks and investors get a full set of terms, identifiers, and details on deals to comply with regulatory reporting needs
    Resource Reconciliation: investors can demonstrate a full audit trail of all resources received, consumed, and valued.

Dealogic Connect ensures consistency and accuracy for banks and investors, and reduces risk—looking at the same data whether placing orders or reconciling resources means fewer mistakes and greater transparency. Furthermore, aligning banks and investors around universal processes reassures regulators.

Innovation and client focus are at the heart of Dealogic product development. Given the company’s unique connectivity between the buyside and sellside, no other firm can ensure the capital markets are prepared for MiFID II in advance of January 2018.

Andersen Tax & Legal Launches in Germany

SAN FRANCISCO -Thursday, June 1st 2017 [ ME NewsWire ]

(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Andersen Global is proud to announce the launch of the Andersen name in Germany with the addition of a new member firm, Andersen Rechtsanwaltsgesellschaft Steuerberatungsgesellschaft mbH, in Cologne, Germany. The team of ten joins Andersen Global primarily from Luther law firm, and will provide tax and legal services under the name Andersen Tax & Legal. The team is led by Stefan Kraus and Hermann Knott.

“Germany is one of the key markets in the world and the addition of the team in Cologne demonstrates our commitment to making the expansion of our platform there a top priority,” said Andersen Tax CEO, Mark Vorsatz. “Stefan and Hermann were among the founding partners of Andersen Legal in Germany and Stefan was Managing Partner of Luther law firm for 15 years. The team in Cologne brings with them the experience, values and culture of Andersen that continues to play a very important role in our development of a seamless professional services model.”

The office in Cologne is the first to adopt the Andersen name in Germany but the third location in Germany. Alegis, led by Managing Partner Alessio Rossi, joined Andersen Global in 2015 with locations in Dusseldorf and Merzig. Eventually, all three locations will operate as Andersen Tax & Legal.

“We joined Andersen Tax & Legal because we share a history and core values and wanted to be a part of a globally operating multidisciplinary tax and legal firm,” shared Stefan Kraus who, together with Alessio Rossi, will serve as Managing Partners for Andersen Tax & Legal in Germany. “The combination of best-in-class tax and legal services is clearly a benefit for our clients.”

Andersen Tax & Legal in Cologne will provide a large range of corporate and commercial legal services including M&A transactions, banking and finance regulatory services, real estate and dispute resolution as well as individual and corporate tax services in Germany and on cross-border matters.

Andersen Global has more than 2,000 professionals worldwide and a presence in 64 locations through its member firms and collaborating firms.

Andersen Tax Achieves Another Legal Victory in Trademark Dispute

Settlement Reached in Brazil

SAN FRANCISCO -Wednesday, May 31st 2017 [ ME NewsWire ]

(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Andersen Tax has achieved another legal victory in its determined and successful effort to protect the trademark rights in its iconic brand name, Andersen, in jurisdictions around the world.

In a settlement agreement this week, the Brazilian firm, MP Cont Sociedade Simples Ltda., agreed never to use the terms “Andersen,” Arthur Andersen,” or any mark incorporating the term “Andersen” (or any confusingly similar term) to promote its services anywhere in the world. The agreement resolves legal action that Andersen Tax filed before the Brazilian intellectual property authorities and other related disputes.

It is a another legal blow to a French firm, Arthur Andersen & Co., formerly named Quatre Juillet Maison Blanche, which illegally used the trademark Arthur Andersen to recruit and promote the Brazilian firm as part of an international accountancy, tax and business consultancy network.

“In blatant disregard for the law, the French infringers began promoting the Andersen brand for offices throughout Brazil, apparently without conducting any due-diligence investigation on Brazilian trademark rights,” said Oscar L. Alcantara, Managing Director and Associate Counsel at Andersen Tax. “Had they done so, they would have seen that Andersen Tax has had its filings in the intellectual property offices of Brazil for several years now.”

It is the third legal setback for the French entity. In early April, the United States District Court for the Northern District of California entered an injunction prohibiting the French network’s U.S.-affiliate MoHala Enterprises, doing business as Sundial Consulting, from using the terms “Andersen” or “Arthur Andersen” in the United States.

On April 28, 2017, the High Court of Judicature in Bombay, India imposed a permanent injunction against an Indian firm, International Business Associates (IBA), from using the terms “Andersen,” “Arthur Andersen,” and confusingly similar trademarks to promote its professional services consultancy.

The Indian court also handed down a preliminary injunction against the French entity, Arthur Andersen & Co., temporarily prohibiting it from promoting its consultancy services in India. IBA had aligned itself with the French firm as an affiliate member of its network in India.

“We have now successfully enforced our rights to the Andersen name and precluded the French firm from violating our legal rights on three different continents,” said Mark Vorsatz, CEO and Managing Director at Andersen Tax.

“I feel sorry for those individuals or groups who have been misled and may have paid fees to the French firm for the use of a name which we own,” Vorsatz said.

Andersen Tax now has settlement agreements or injunctions against infringers in the U.S., India and Brazil. The French entity, Arthur Andersen & Co., misrepresented its global presence on its website.

In addition to listing a Houston, Texas address that did not exist, the site lists four locations in the U.S. where Arthur Andersen & Co. has no office, no firm and no representation. It is similar in Brazil and India where the French website lists seven locations where they have no office, firm or representation. In Dubai, Andersen Tax was informed that the French network was not authorized to use the name of the local firm they listed on their website.

“I think that this group has been exposed for what they are. We will continue to aggressively pursue actions against this group and enforce our legal rights,” Vorsatz said. “For all of the partners and employees of Andersen Tax, and for all of those who had worked at Arthur Andersen, we have every commitment to prosecute our rights against this attempt to take advantage of the Andersen brand.”

MP Cont Sociedade Simples Ltda., the Brazilian firm, also agreed to dissolve a legal entity it had established called "Arthur Andersen & Co Brazil Participações Ltda.”; to transfer domain names that incorporate the term Andersen to Andersen Tax LLC; to withdraw trademark applications for the marks Arthur Andersen & Co. and Arthur Andersen Co. LLC from the Brazilian intellectual property office; and acknowledges that Andersen Tax LLC is the owner of the “Andersen” trademarks in Brazil, including the marks Andersen Tax, Andersen Global, Arthur Andersen, and its iconic Door logo.

The Agreement is signed by Vitor Saldanha, the individual that Quatre Juillet had identified as the “Managing Partner – South America” of its purported network.

In another blow to the French entity, last week the Japanese Trademark Office issued a final rejection of Quatre Juillet’s application to register the mark Arthur Andersen because it conflicted with Andersen Tax’s rightful registration.
