Private Equity

Het Private Equity Team van Houthoff heeft ruim 20 jaar ervaring in het begeleiden van private-equityspelers bij transacties en de samenhangende structureringsvraagstukken. Van de initiële acquisitie van een nieuwe portfoliomaatschappij, inclusief de vaak complexe financierings- en structureringskwesties die daarbij spelen, tot en met de “exit”.

Onze specialisten hebben een grondig begrip van de “drivers” achter de transacties die we begeleiden en weten wat er speelt in de nationale en internationale markt. Zij zijn daarom niet alleen op juridisch vlak, maar ook op strategisch, commercieel en economisch vlak een echte sparringpartner voor cliënten.

Door de jaren heen is ons Private Equity Team uitgegroeid tot de vaste “go to” adviseur voor een groot aantal gerenommeerde private-equity cliënten, waaronder lokale private-equityfondsen die zich vooral richten op de Nederlandse markt, investeringsmaatschappijen van families (“family offices”) en grote internationale private-equityfondsen. Het team is inmiddels internationaal erkend als uiterst efficiënte dealmaker met een ongeëvenaard track record.

Cliënten schakelen onze private-equityspecialisten in vanwege hun “deal-driven” benadering en hun gebruik van duidelijke, toegankelijke taal in transactiedocumentatie. Onze specialisten begrijpen dat cliënten doordacht advies nodig hebben, maar dan wel op een manier die voor hen werkt – praktisch, begrijpelijk en efficiënt. Ons multidisciplinair Private Equity Team werkt nauw samen met onze experts op alle voor transacties relevante gebieden.
