Weil Advises PCCW in the Restructuring of Reach with Telstra

International law firm Weil, Gotshal & Manges is representing PCCW Limited in the restructuring of Reach Ltd., its 50/50 international connectivity joint venture with Australian-based Telstra Corporation. The restructuring will result in the division of the majority of Reach’s assets and operations among PCCW and Telstra, which is expected to increase operational efficiencies for Reach and its shareholders. The transaction is expected to complete in the first half of 2011.

“We are pleased to have been able to help PCCW in this extremely complex and strategically important transaction which involves multiple jurisdictions in which Reach operates” said Henry Ong, Weil’s Head of Hong Kong practice.

Weil’s team was led by partners Henry Ong and Anthony Wang, and included associates Clarence Cheuk, Peng Yu and Carrie Suen.
