Foreign Companies In Israel

Shimonov & Co. uniquely specializes in the representation of foreign companies seeking to offer securities to the Israeli public. To this end, the firm has a dedicated department to handle this practice area, led by Advs. Dudi Berland and Binyamin Ben Zimra, senior partners at the firm.

Over the years, the firm’s team has developed a specialization in providing legal advice and support for complex cross-border funding transactions of foreign corporations seeking to offer securities in Israel. Today, the firm represents the vast majority of U.S. real estate companies that have issued bonds in Israel, among them, large U.S. real estate corporations and well-known controlling shareholders that are ranked high on Forbes’ list of the world’s wealthiest individuals.

In recent years, the firm has overseen funding rounds of hundreds of millions of shekels in unique securities offerings of foreign companies, in which bondholders were granted liens on rights in real estate properties in North America. In 2019, the firm accompanied the preparation of a groundbreaking and first-of-its-kind IPO prospectus in the history of the Israeli capital market, when for the first time ever, a U.S. REIT with an UPREIT structure was introduced on the TASE to offer shares to the Israeli public only, for which reason the Company underwent the full listing process in Israel and not a dual listing process.
