Pérez-Llorca
Working in close collaboration with the firm’s regulatory, tax, labour, antitrust and disputes experts, Pérez-Llorca‘s private equity department ’provides comprehensive advice covering all potential areas of a transaction‘ to PE funds and other financial sponsors active in Spain. Typical mandates for the group range from investments and exits, to P2P deals, LBOs, distressed matters, alternative divestment strategies and NPL portfolio acquisitions. Chairing the department, Pablo González Mosqueira, a ’go-to choice in Spain for complex transactions‘, handles major deals on behalf of global and domestic PE financial sponsors. Francisco Iso, whose broad experience encompasses LBOs, disposals and buy-and-build strategies, is regularly retained in cross-border mandates, while Julio Lujambio, a dual qualified M&A and PE specialist (Spain and Mexico), is recommended for his ’strong technical skills‘ and ’commercial judgement‘. José Luis Romeu is another key contact.
