Cuatrecasas had advised investment holding company Bergé y Compañía on signing a binding agreement with infrastructure manager A.P. Moller Capital, enabling the latter to enter the shareholding of port operator BERGÉ with a stake of 51%. 

This strategic alliance, made possible through an investment vehicle developed by A.P. Moller Holding, is aimed at boosting long-term growth for BERGÉ and at carrying out important investments to strengthen its position as a leading company for port infrastructure and logistics on the Iberian Peninsula and in Latin America, and in this way meeting the growing demand.

The transaction will enable BERGÉ to accelerate its organic and non-organic growth plans alongside such a strong partner as A.P. Moller Capital, an experienced player in the logistics industry. BERGÉ will benefit from the combined industrial and financial experience of the two shareholders.

The Cuatrecasas team providing the advisory service was made up of lawyers Raimundo Segura and Javier Martí-Fluxà (Corporate and M&A), with lawyers Marta Álvarez (Tax) and Joanes Labayen (Litigation) also collaborating. Raimundo Segura said the following about the transaction: “It has been a pleasure to work intensely and perfectly coordinated with BERGÉ’s competent legal and finance team.
