How we made a difference
Thank you to the Cripps’ team for their advice and expertise in navigating this complex transaction. Their guidance throughout the process, including managing communications with our sizeable shareholder base was invaluable. We’re grateful for Cripps’ legal advice and extensive project management, which ultimately secured a smooth and successful outcome for Active Management Solutions.
Active Management Solutions
Once again the UK Cripps team, together with their affiliates in Holland at Orange Clover Law and Florent, have guided us expertly on the creation and closure of this significant deal for Holiday Extras. Beth and her colleagues helped us navigate significant complexity, delivering the all important “win-win” for us as the buyer and for the seller. They had a remarkable ability to stay across all the moving parts of a deal which included acquisition of an overseas trading business, together with multiple property commitments across the EU. They fit seamlessly into our inhouse team and as individuals always go the extra mile to bring a great deal over the line.
