Conyers Dill & Pearman worked alongside Berwin Leighton Paisner in advising C C Land Holdings Limited (the “Company”), in connection with its purchase of The Leadenhall Building (known as the Cheesegrater) for £1.15 billion.
The sale is the biggest property deal in the UK since 2014 when Qatar’s sovereign wealth fund bought the HSBC Tower in Canary Wharf for £1.2billion. It has also been noted as the largest Chinese investment in the UK’s real estate market.
Linda Martin and Veronica Strande of Conyers’ London office provided advice on the Bermuda law aspects of the transaction.
