ITALY - Top Legal supports first Italian unquote" event

Private equity shows no signs of slowdown in Italy. The first half of 2007 registered a 131% increase in investments on the same period in 2006. The domestic market, currently worth EUR 11bn, has also been the focus for Italy’s business lawyers. Top Legal brings a dedicated section on Italian venture capital and private equity with interviews with fund managers, directors and company CEOs with a first-hand insight into the industry's trends and activity. In recent issues, Top Legal has analysed the biotech, food, fashion and luxury goods sectors. Each month, readers receive news and analysis on the strategy of domestic and international funds active in Italy as well as a round-up of the latest announced and completed deals.

unquote’s first Italian congress is to take place at Milan’s Le Meridien Gallia next Tuesday, 20 November. The English-speaking event will unite general partners, advisers, academics, lawyers and limited partners from Italy and abroad to discuss crucial issues for the asset class in the aftermath of the debt woes. It will include a focus on legislation and regulation, where the Ashurst team will discuss concerns surrounding the much feared directive MiFID, as well as the developments on capital gains tax and other fiscal matters.
