Co-headed by Cedric Bless and Nicolas Marchand, the corporate team at Benelux firm AKD continues to perform well in the private equity market since opening its doors almost a decade ago. In particular, it has developed robust ties with a number of major international law firms acting as local counsel on large cross-border M&A deals, as well as generating some increasingly strong ties directly with a number of major financial sponsors, including Bridgepoint and Pictet Alternative Advisors.
