We advised Banca di Credito Peloritan, a Sicilian banking
organization, and its majority shareholders on their
reverse merger with Tyche, a financial intermediary
specializing in the evaluation and acquisition of
pecuniary credits claimed from insolvency proceedings.
The merger resulted in the creation of Tyche Bank, a new
Italian banking entity dedicated to bankruptcy procedures
and traditional banking products and services.
Lawyers in our Milan and Rome offices led the
transaction, with support from our corporate and
regulatory practices.
We advised Crédit Agricole Personal Finance &
Mobility, a subsidiary of French bank Crédit Agricole,
on its acquisition of 50% of the equity interests of GAC

The acquisition will help to promote the deployment
of electric vehicles in China.
Lawyers in our Hong Kong office led the transaction,
with support from our Beijing and Shanghai
offices and our antitrust, banking, capital markets,
commercial, intellectual property, international
trade, and white collar practices.
