HONG KONG SAR - Media OutReach Newswire - 22 April 2025 - WRISE Group today announced the launch of WRISE Capital, a new core business unit that specialises in comprehensive corporate finance and advisory services for listed companies, private and institutional clients.

"With a rich history of successful transactions and a deep understanding of global financial markets, Elstone Capital's expertise aligns perfectly with WRISE Group's commitment to providing clients with tailored strategies across key global financial hubs. As investors and businesses seek financial advice today's dynamic market, WRISE Capital will continue to extend strategic expertise and innovative solutions to our clients," he adds.

Headed by newly appointed CEO, Nicholas Cheng, WRISE Capital will provide a full range of corporate finance and advisory services, including M&A and takeovers advisory, Initial Public Offering (IPO) sponsorship and preparation, post-listing and compliance advisory services for Hong Kong listed companies.
