Druces announced as Golf Day Partner for London International Shipping Week 2027 (LISW27)

London International Shipping Week 2027 (LISW27) is proud to announce Druces LLP as its official LISW27 Golf Day Partner, strengthening the week’s focus on expert legal advice in the areas of corporate and capital markets, banking and finance, private wealth, dispute resolution and residential and commercial real estate.

An established City of London law firm with nearly 260 years of experience advising businesses, financial institutions and individuals, Druces will bring a new dimension to LISW27 as the only Private Wealth law firm holding an event during this important global maritime week.

The partnership reflects Druces’ long-standing focus on supporting individuals and families whose wealth, interests and assets span multiple jurisdictions, sectors and generations, across asset structuring, succession and estate planning, cross-border tax considerations, dispute resolution and the protection of personal and commercial interests. The firm’s approach is rooted in acting as a long-term adviser rather than a transactional service provider.

Matthew Duncan, Partner and Head of Private Wealth at Druces, said: “Our clients are individuals first and foremost – entrepreneurs, investors and family offices navigating increasingly complex personal and commercial lives. For those individuals, we can offer lifetime estate planning and tax advice and advise on succession planning on death for example, as well as onshore and offshore trusts, project managing multi-jurisdictional wills to cover worldwide assets, corporate restructuring and property restructuring. Sponsoring the LISW27 Golf Day allows us to engage and, hopefully, build long-term relationships founded on trust rather than transactions.”

Llewellyn Bankes-Hughes, co-founder and co-CEO of LISW, added: “We are delighted to welcome Druces to LISW27 and we are particularly excited that they will be supporting our important LISW27 Golf Day, which will once again, be held at the Grove Golf Club just outside London.

“We anticipate that up to 60 golfers from throughout the global shipping industry will take part in what will be a high-level day of business networking and bonding, against the backdrop of one of the world’s top golfing venues,” he stressed.

In addition to the Golf Day, across LISW27 Druces will also host events for delegates at its City offices.

London International Shipping Week 2027 (LISW27) will run from 13–17 September 2027 across the UK capital, uniting global leaders from shipping, finance, regulation, insurance, ports and technology for a week of high-level dialogue and deal-making.
