Noerr has appointed private equity/ M&A expert Holger Ebersberger as an equity partner. He will be accompanied by his team from previous firm Ashurst and will boost Noerr’s Private Equity practice group at its Munich office.
“The Noerr Private Equity Group has achieved success by focusing on a sector-specific implementation of growth strategies in both the buy-out and growth capital fields,” says Georg Schneider, co-head of Noerr’s Private Equity Group. “With Holger Ebersberger we are strengthening our team to assist in complex PE transactions in the mid- and large-cap sector and are honing our profile in the provision of integrated advice to private equity companies.”
Holger Ebersberger assists PE investors at all stages of their investment and has extensive practical experience in programmes for management equity interests, corporate governance measures and joint ventures. Moreover, in transactional advice his expertise is regularly called for in the field of strategic M&A transactions.
“The inclusion of Holger Ebersberger in our partnership underlines that we are continuing our growth in private equity,” says Christian Pleister, co-head of the practice group. “In a market with rising deal values but a falling number of PE transactions, Noerr has ultimately managed to grow against the trend.” Pleister stresses that “Clients value our seamless offer of dual and triple track, including tax structuring by our strong Capital Markets, Finance and Tax teams. Besides this we are market leaders when it comes to know-how on the topics of digitalisation, data privacy and communication which are shaping the future.”
