Our role in the transaction
Oaklins' team in Riga advised both Sakret Holdings and their former bank – Luminor Bank – on a complex transaction to refinance the existing debt liability with the bank. To establish a market price for equity, a sale process was run with selected strategic investors. Once Sakret Holdings and Luminor bank agreed on the haircut amount for the loan, Oaklins' team advised on the best debt structure and approached regional banks and alternative financing providers for their offers.
