Jakub Rachwol – Rymarz Zdort Maruta

At the beginning of 2023, Rymarz Zdort and Maruta Wachta merged to form Rymarz Zdort Maruta, and the resultant banking and finance team excels in assisting with acquisition finance and M&A-related deals, including those concerning mezzanine structures. The group continues to have a notable focus on the sponsor side of mandates, representing domestic and foreign companies, although it has also been increasingly acting for lenders. Energy-related work and project financing constitute additional core areas of strength. Zofia Frydrychowicz and Jakub Rachwol jointy lead the team; the former has expertise in domestic and cross-border financings and debt restructurings, while the latter ‘possesses high-level expertise’ in corporate finance mandates.
