About

Provided by Gitti and Partners

Our professionals have extensive experience in advising domestic and international investors (private equity houses, family office, holding companies, etc.) on structuring and completing leveraged and management buy-outs, as well as on secondary buy-outs.

Through the gained experience and the synergies across its different departments, the Firm has the necessary expertise to assist clients throughout the entire buy-out process: from the acquisition to the financing, the merger of the NewCo (or any other alternative structure), the management of any post-closing activity, the relationships with minority and majority shareholders, the subsequent development of the target through add-on processes, up to the exit of the investors through sale or listing.

The Firm has a specific expertise on private equity secondary and, in particular, on the sale and purchase, on behalf of financial institutions or domestic management teams, of portfolios of companies held by private equity funds, stakes in private equity funds (venture capital, buy-out and mezzanine), stakes in vehicles controlling private equity funds and management companies (SGR and limited partnerships).

Finally, Gitti and Partners advises domestic and international clients on the setting-up of private equity funds, also through multi-jurisdictional structures in whole or in part, on the regulatory process before the competent authorities and on the implementation of the relevant legal and tax structures.
