The Ashurst cross border team was coordinated by Italian Tax partner Michele Milanese supported by associate Federico Squarcia. The Spanish-based team was led by partner Eduardo Gracia (pictured top left), assisted by counsel Jorge Ramírez (pictured bottom left) for Spanish Tax aspects; partner Jorge Vázquez (pictured top centre), senior associate Tannia Rodriguez (pictured bottom centre) and junior associate Cristina Lopez-Canos for Spanish Corporate Law aspects; senior associate Cristina Grande (pictured top right) for Spanish Employment Law aspects and counsel Josefina Garcia (pictured bottom right) for Spanish Regulatory and Anti-money Laundering aspects.

FIVELEX Studio Legale e Tributario advised on the Italian regulatory aspects with a team composed of managing partner Francesco Di Carlo and salary partner Flavio Acerbi.

The Spanish branch follows the recent opening of a new branch in Germany, where global law firm Ashurst advised Generali Investments Partners in relation to the Italian and German Tax aspects.
