Paul Hastings has advised Investindustrial on the launch of Investindustrial Fund VI (Fund VI), the largest ever fund focused primarily on Southern Europe.
The fund will pursue majority investments in quality European mid-market companies typically headquartered in Italy, Spain, Portugal or Switzerland with a strong internationalisation potential.
Fund VI is the first fund of EUR2 billion or more raised for the region and Investindustrial’s funds comprise three of the four funds ever raised in the region of EUR1 billion-plus size.
Funds partner Duncan Woollard led the Paul Hastings team, assisted by funds associate Adam Knight, with associate Nikki Johnstone assisting on the regulatory aspects.
Woollard says: “We are delighted to have acted for Investindustrial on this fundraising. The fact that Investindustrial have reached their hard cap of EUR2 billion within only three months of fundraising is testament to the quality and dedication of the Investindustrial team and their longstanding experience in the region.”
At Paul Hastings, our purpose is clear – to help our clients and people navigate new paths to growth. With a strong presence throughout Asia, Europe, Latin America, and the US, Paul Hastings is recognised as one of the world’s most innovative global law firms.
