Corporate Law & M&A

Lead: Antoine Bessard

Acquisitions, disposals, restructurings, shareholders' agreements, corporate governance. For executives, reference shareholders and Swiss or European funds.

The firm handles some twenty mid-size transactions per year, from the letter of intent through to post-closing execution. Our role is as often that of advisor alongside the executive as that of lead negotiator. We act indifferently on the buy side or sell side, for owner-operators as well as financial sponsors.
