Milbank has strengthened its energy and project finance team with the addition of a Latham & Watkins partner in London. Matthew Brown, who was previously an associate with Herbert Smith Freehills and Allen & Overy, joins Milbank from Latham & Watkins, where he spent over 16 years working across the firm’s Africa, India, oil & gas, power, mining & metals, and islamic finance practices. 

It is Milbank’s latest U.K. addition after hiring an antitrust partner in December and luring Shearman & Sterling’s EMEA capital markets head last year.
