Clifford Chance advises AltamarCAM Partners and its shareholders on Permira's 40% stake investment

Clifford Chance advised certain shareholders of AltamarCAM Partners on its agreement to sell a 40% stake in the company to Permira Growth Opportunities II. The capital contributed by Permira Growth Opportunities II replaces almost the entire position of the current financial shareholders, as well as a small stake of the shareholding of some of the executive shareholders. The transaction is expected to be completed by the end of 2023.

AltamarCAM Partners is a global investment manager focused on private market investments, which has more than 18 billion euros in assets committed by investors. With offices in Madrid, Cologne, Barcelona, New York, London, Santiago de Chile, and Munich and a team of more than 250 people, AltamarCAM Partners also provides independent investment banking and merchant banking services and direct and efficient access to funds from a selection of international managers.

Clifford Chance previously advised Altamar Capital Partners on the merger with German asset manager CAM Alternatives resulting in the creation of AltamarCAM Partners.

María Sanz, Partner - Chief Legal Officer at AltamarCAM Partners, said: "The Clifford Chance team handled professionally all legal aspects throughout the project and made us feel at ease with full commitment and excellent delivery under a tight timetable. They also adapted well to AltamarCAM Partners' specific standards, which we greatly appreciated".

The Clifford Chance team advising on the transaction was led by Madrid M&A Private Equity partner Javier Amantegui supported by senior associates Patricia Puertas, Beatriz Melo and María Viñas. The team also comprised other members, including partner Ildefonso Alier (Funds & Investment Management), senior counsel Carme Briera (Regulatory) and counsel Begoña Barrantes (Antitrust).
