PLMJ advises Davidson Kempner, ECS on logistics JV
PLMJ has advised the US asset manager Davidson Kempner and the Portuguese private equity firm ECS Capital on the creation of a joint venture with Magna Industrial, an Iberian developer and builder specialising in logistics, industrial and infrastructure assets.
The new platform aims to invest in modern logistics and industrial assets located across the Iberian Peninsula, responding to opportunities created by the reconfiguration of supply chains, which has led the logistics sector to pursue nearshoring strategies.
