De Brauw Blackstone Westbroek has advised Waterland Private Equity on the divestment of Intertrust to The Blackstone Group through a controlled auction. Intertrust is a global trust service provider with over 1,100 experts in over 20 countries worldwide. The transaction is subject to antitrust clearance and regulatory approvals in various countries.
De Brauw lead partner Arne Grimme indicates that this is a sign of hope for the Dutch M & A market. ‘The sale of Intertrust to Waterland to Blackstone is a welcomed, but at this moment also a rare, example of a successful large secondary buy-out in the Netherlands.
