GSK Stockmann > The Legal 500 Rankings

Luxembourg > Banking, finance and capital markets Tier 3

Deploying 'the right mix of black letter law knowledge and commercial acumen', GSK Stockmann continues to gain traction in the market, directly for clients as well as on a referral basis from international law firms, particularly in relation to capital markets and securitisation matters. Praised for his inclination 'to think outside the box to find solutions', Andreas Heinzmann is at the forefront of much of this work, as is the 'business-oriented' Valerio Scollo , particularly on matters with an Italian nexus. The 'approachable, helpful and commercial' Philipp Moessner co-heads the team alongside Heinzmann and regularly handles real estate finance work, often alongside lawyers from the firm's German offices.

Luxembourg > Investment funds Tier 3

The 'very proactive and client-oriented' team at GSK Stockmann has established a strong reputation advising international clients, including fund managers and promoters, on fund structuring and pursuant operational/regulatory advice, particularly in the alternative fund space. Leveraging the firm's resources on the ground in Luxembourg and across its German offices, the team excels in advising on matters with a German nexus, with team head Marcus Peter regularly advising German clients on the cross-border structuring of investment funds. 'Highly skilled in Luxembourg funds law', Corinna Schumacher is also a key member of the team and provides 'highly focused and efficient advice' to stakeholders, including on some complex structures and supervisory issues in the cross-border arena.

Luxembourg > Tax Tier 3

Luxembourg > Commercial, corporate and M&A Tier 4

Strengthened on the transactional front by the arrival in October 2023 of Anna Gassner from Luther S.A., who is adept at handling both private equity/venture capital and strategic investor-led work, GSK Stockmann's 'very collaborative, helpful and responsive team' continues to gain traction in the market in relation to both local and cross-border M&A transactions. For cross-border matters, the team often works alongside practitioners from its German offices, including in relation to corporate real estate mandates, an area that Gassner's co-head Philipp Moessner excels in.
