Not surprised this turned out to be the Best Dutch Mid-Cap Deal of 2024. Congrats Milan Wielinga and Koen Gulen of Park 56 and all others involved, especially the entire team at De Gruyter Brill. Honoured that Silver Fox was engaged and able to secure the financing for this landmark transaction. #debtadvisory #funding #debt #financing #debtsolutions #acquisitionfinancing #cfo #yourfinancematters
A few weeks ago, we shared that the Dutch M&A community nominated the De Gruyter Brill merger for Best Dutch Mid-Cap Deal of the Year 2024, along with four other transactions. Last night, in a ceremony in the beautiful Beurs van Berlage in downtown Amsterdam, we won the award – the De Gruyter Brill deal is now officially the Best Dutch Mid-Cap Deal of the Year 2024! The jury praised the transaction's clear strategic rationale, the flawless deal execution including the delisting of the Brill shares, and the creative way cross-border complexities and financing were approached – a tribute to the hard work by all parties involved!
