KSB represented PPF Group N.V. in establishment of European Company HC SE by merger
Out of the few transactions occurring in the Czech Republic since the EC Regulation on the European Company (Societas Europaea, SE) took effect, this is already the third establishment of a European Company by a cross-border merger for which KSB has provided its legal services. The first and simultaneously pilot project of this type in the Czech Republic was the assistance provided to the RPG Group during establishment of the European Company RPG Industries SE. The second case was a cross-border merger with the participation of a significant Czech company doing business in various industrial branches and the financial sector. Expressed financially, in all three cross-border mergers assisted by KSB, the values of the merging companies amounted to tens of billions of Czech crowns, whereby they rank among the most significant cross-border mergers not only in the Czech Republic but also in all of Europe.
