Compiled by lawyers across Baker McKenzie's European network, the European Take-Private Financing Guide compares the noteworthy features and requirements of financing take-private transactions in Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg, The Netherlands, Poland, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Türkiye, UK and Ukraine.
Public-to-private deals are a dominant feature of the M&A landscape. Ask any industry participant about their experience of public M&A and you are likely to elicit a range of reactions. At one end of the spectrum, successful public deals appear to offer an upside for all those involved. Shareholders realise a premium, management is incentivised, investors deploy capital to unlock new opportunities, and even advisors benefit from the flurry of activity. At the other end of the spectrum, public M&A remains time-consuming, resource-intensive and expensive in the context of a rule-bound process with an outcome that is far from certain or controllable.
At Baker McKenzie, we have a deep and broad knowledge of all facets of take-private transactions, including the role of financing as a critical part of the process. Our experience of leading these deals and our ability to work seamlessly across borders and legal frameworks are captured in this guide.
Please do not hesitate to follow up with us if we can be of further assistance. We hope you find this a useful resource!
