Private Equity, Venture Capital & Financial Sponsors
Our working group is composed of a multidisciplinary team of professionals, who since years advises Italian and foreign sponsors and investors.
Thanks to the synergies among the departments involved, we can provide our clients with an integrated assistance able to offer a specialised and experienced advice on all aspects of private equity, venture capital and investment transactions, regardless of the purpose (majority, minority or other types of investment) and the type of client (international funds, Italian funds, mid-market funds, sovereign investment funds, family office, private investors).
Our multidisciplinary team provides full assistance in all investment phases: from incorporation of funds and fundraising, through structuring and execution of investment (leveraged buy-out, management buy-out and buy-in, take-private) and divestment (trade sale, private auctions and IPO) transactions.
We have a consolidated domestic, international and cross-border expertise which – together with an in-depth analysis of legislative and procedural latest updates (also thanks to the interaction with leading international independent law firms) – has enabled our permanent involvement in the most significant transactions of the private equity sector, assisting both funds and entrepreneurs.
Our professionals are involved in sector insights and seminars addressed to a sophisticated audience of operators in the financial sector and cooperate with associations and financial institutions such as Associazione Italiana Del Private Equity e Venture Capital (AIFI), Borsa Italiana (The Italian Stock Exchange), The American Chamber of Commerce in Italy (AmCham) and surveys on private equity of leading universities.
