Brouxel & Rabia advised Platinum Equity, a leading US private equity firm, on the €5.6 billion sale of Urbaser, a global integrated environmental infrastructure platform specialized in the collection, management and treatment of municipal and industrial waste, to Blackstone and EQT.
The firm acted on the Luxembourg law aspects of this landmark transaction, which stands among the most significant infrastructure deals in recent months.
The transaction involved the sale of the Luxembourg holding entities through which the Urbaser group is indirectly owned, once again underscoring Luxembourg’s key role in structuring and executing complex cross-border private equity exits.
The completion of the transaction remains subject to customary regulatory approvals.
The Brouxel & Rabia team was led by Partner Samia Rabia, with the support of Miroslava Dudas, Delia Nitescu, Pablo Umbon-Manzano, Yacine Bouazza, Fleur Marchal and Margot Geisler.
