White & Case’s Indonesian alliance firm Witara Cakra Advocates (WCA) had expanded its debt finance offerings with the addition of Cindy Riswantyo as a partner from global rival Allen & Overy.

Witara Cakra Advocates has advised Indonesian nickel company Trimegah Bangun Persada, also known as Harita Nickel, on its 10-trillion-rupiah ($669.79 million) IPO on the Indonesian Stock Exchange, with Clifford Chance and Ginting & Reksodiputro acting for the underwriters.

White & Case has, through its Indonesian alliance firm Witara Cakra Advocates (WCA), hired two banking and capital markets partners from Hiswara Bunjamin & Tandjung (HBT), Herbert Smith Freehills’ associated law firm in the country.

White & Case has named Witara Cakra Advocates (WCA) as its associate firm in Jakarta after two key partners of its former Indonesia alliance firm, MD & Partners, left to join Hadiputranto, Hadinoto & Partners and Norton Rose Fulbright respectively.
