About

Provided by ADVANT Altana

ADVANT Altana works hand-in-hand with clients to provide strategic advice and tailor-made services that effectively navigate the complex dynamics of deal-making, whether for buyers, sellers, or investors.

Our strength lies in providing strategic and highly bespoke M&A advice, for which we are able to bring to bear the expertise of our lawyers, ADVANT’s member firms, or other best-in-class advisors around the world.

We have significant expertise advising on hundreds of transactions involving both private and listed companies, as well as joint ventures, minority or majority stakes, and management or leveraged buyouts. 

We also advise clients regarding de-mergers, distressed transactions, or acquisitions (such as those implemented through Court proceedings or restructuring arrangements), as well as public or contentious takeovers.

Our deal-making experience spans a wide array of sectors, including those which are highly regulated or in an environment of innovation, such as technology and digital media, banking and finance, retail and leisure, mobility, industrials, energy, life sciences and healthcare, private clients, and real estate.
