Global legal structure of Clyde & Co
- The business carried on by the partnership known as Clyde & Co in the UK and its locally registered branches in Abu Dhabi, Doha, Dubai and Singapore is carried on through a limited liability partnership registered in England and Wales known as Clyde & Co LLP but which continues to practise under the name Clyde & Co. The firm's offices in France will also become branches of Clyde & Co LLP but these offices continue to be locally registered branches of Clyde & Co (a firm) until all local regulatory consents have been obtained. Clients will be notified by the relevant office once the transfer to LLP has taken place.
- Clyde & Co's Piraeus office, previously a branch of a separate unlimited partnership, has from 1 May 2007 been transferred to a separate LLP limited liability partnership registered in England and Wales known as Clyde & Co (Greece) LLP with a locally registered branch in Piraeus.
- The business structures for other Clyde & Co offices remain unchanged, as do arrangements with associated firms, although the association is with Clyde & Co LLP rather than with the general partnership of Clyde & Co.
