Baker McKenzie advised Arbonia on EUR 100 million bridge loan facility for its acquisition of the Dimoldura Group and Lignis

Baker McKenzie Switzerland advised Arbonia AG on a EUR 100 million bridge loan facility for its acquisition of the Dimoldura Group and Lignis. The bridge facility was made available by UBS Switzerland AG. Baker McKenzie acted as the sole legal counsel to Arbonia on all aspects of the financing transaction.

The Dimoldura Group is the Spanish market leader for doors. Lignis is the Czech market leader in the contractor services sector. With the two acquisitions, Arbonia is expanding its geographic footprint into southwestern and Eastern Europe in line with its strategy and has taken another step toward its ambition of market leadership in Europe.

The Baker McKenzie team was led by Markus Wolf (partner, Banking & Finance, Switzerland) and further included Alexander Fischer (partner, Corporate/M&A, Switzerland) and Tatiana Ayranova (senior associate, Banking & Finance, Switzerland).
