Our role in the transaction
Oaklins’ team in France acted as the lead advisor to the Aero Equipment management team throughout the sale process, including preparation, due diligence, outreach, and parallel negotiations with potential buyers, and supported them through to closing. The approach to potential buyers worldwide was facilitated by local Oaklins teams.
