Leading in Bloomberg H1 2023 Activism Advisory League Tables; Recognized again as top defense firm in Canada

Canada Press release - Recognition July 2023

The Bloomberg H1 2023 Activism Advisory League Tables once again ranked Norton Rose Fulbright first place in Canada as the top company-side legal advisor. We also moved up in the rankings globally to seventh place and are the only Canadian firm to be listed in the top ten for the global company-side legal advisors.

Additionally, on the activist side, the firm was again ranked third place for Canada – tied as the top-ranking Canadian firm – and made substantial gains globally, with a move from sixteenth to eighth place. We are one of only two Canadian firms listed in the global activist-side legal advisors table.

Walied Soliman, KC, Canadian Chair of Norton Rose Fulbright, commented:

“We are pleased to be recognized as the number one defense firm in Canada and to be the only Canadian firm to make the top ten globally. These rankings reaffirm what we experience as we act in this highly competitive, demanding and consequential space – clients know there is only one firm to call when confronted with shareholder activism.”
