Together with our firm’s experts specialised in the most relevant industries (entertainment and culture, tourism and hospitality, automotive, financial and regulated entities, real estate, energy, food and beverages, industry, new technologies, etc.), our professionals in the M&A and private equity practice provide comprehensive and tailor-made solutions to our clients in the different fields of business activity, in order to optimise the purchase and sale processes in which we intervene

In many cases, our team, in collaboration with other advisors (corporate finance, auditors, etc.), is responsible for the design, structuring and execution of structured divestment projects in companies and businesses, both in the preparatory acts (reorganisation prior to the sale, restructuring of financing, spin-off of non-core assets, vendors due diligence, etc.) and in the subsequent execution (negotiation with the various parties interested in the acquisition, identification of the best offers, etc.).

We also intervene in acquisition and divestment processes of distressed assets and businesses, both in the pre-bankruptcy phase and, subsequently and if necessary, within the framework of bankruptcy proceedings, in which our professionals in this practice, together with those of the Banking and Finance and Insolvency and Restructuring practices, provide a global vision which allows us to offer and structure innovative and creative solutions that maximise the possibilities of success of these projects and, at the same time, contribute to minimising the risks inherent in this type of activity.

Part of our team specialises in the private equity and venture capital industry, advising sponsors, funds and management companies, and their portfolio companies, on all types of acquisitions, divestments, build-ups and spin-offs, investment and divestment agreements, exits, recaps, etc.
