Laurent Wielfaert

Associate

Laurent is an associate at Oaklins KBC Securities in Belgium. As a member of the execution team, he manages all aspects of the deal process, whether in M&A or ECM, across a variety of industries.

Prior to joining the firm in 2023, Laurent started his career as an analyst at the investment holding company Floridienne, where he assisted executive and financial departments along the different stages of M&A processes. As such, he worked on multiple M&A transactions involving the likes of Biobest Group, SNAM Group and IKA Group. The subsequent move to PwC’s deals advisory as a senior M&A associate allowed him to gain further M&A expertise while tackling deals from a strategic angle, that is identifying and unlocking deal value through commercial DD, synergy analyses, corporate restructuring and post-merger integration strategies. Some notable deals he worked on include the setup of the battery materials joint venture between Volkswagen and Umicore and the takeover of Suez by Veolia. Laurent has a Master of Business Administration from Ghent University.
