Paul Hastings and Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton are understood to have been appointed as lead advisers on the IPO of Chinese meat processing company Shuanghui International, estimated to be worth up to $6bn (£3.75bn). The planned listing would be the biggest in Hong Kong in four years, providing a welcome boost to the local IPO market, which has seen a dearth of high-value flotations since the middle of 2012. It follows Shuanghui's takeover of the world's largest pork producer – Virginia-based Smithfield Foods – earlier this year. That deal, valued at $7.1bn (£4.7bn), marked the largest ever acquisition of a US company by a Chinese business.
