Australia and New Zealand

Rothschild has provided trusted and independent financial advice to clients in Australia for more than 40 years.

From offices in Sydney and Melbourne, we offer expertise across the full range of financial advisory services. In addition to general M&A and strategic advisory, specialist teams offer financing advice, including restructuring. Dedicated teams focus on sectors including consumer, industrials, mining, oil and gas, financial sponsors, property and real estate, utilities, transport and infrastructure, telecoms, media and technology, financial services and government.

Our senior bankers lead every assignment from start to finish. We offer nothing but our best advice and execution services, so our advice is impartial and free from conflicts of interest. We have a strong track record in the region, and have advised on a number of landmark transactions. Our recent assignments include advising Extract Resources on the proposed US$2.2 billion downstream cash offer for the company from CGNPC Uranium Resources and The China-Africa Development Fund, Alinta Energy’s banking syndicate on maximising the recovery of its US$2.4 billion debt facility, and Asahi Group Holdings on a string of transactions in the Oceania region. We also advised the Queensland Government on its US$17.6 billion Asset Sales Programme.

Since 2008, we have developed a successful alliance with Cameron Partners in New Zealand so that locally based advisory services can be offered to business and the government.

As well as our on-the-ground network of expertise, clients can benefit from Rothschild’s collective intellectual capital and leverage our extensive Asian and global networks of contacts and industry sector specialists.
