Firm considers how to fund new offices ahead of Fulbright tie-up

Norton Rose is in the early stages of looking at how to fund expansion into new regions, as it gears up for this June's merger with US outfit Fulbright & Jaworski.

The firm, which already operates a shared account across Norton Rose Group to cover central costs such as IT, finance, branding and research and development, is looking at how the cost of new launches can best be shared between different parts of the business.
