Over the past two decades, we have provided counsel on a variety of successful privatization transactions, representing both sellers and buyers. The firm’s expertise spans key sectors including banking, oil and gas, energy, telecommunications, aviation, fertilizer, real estate, and textiles.
The firm’s involvement in privatization deals has equipped it with a thorough understanding of the privatization process, its associated laws and regulations, as well as a comprehensive knowledge of each sector. These transactions require detailed legal due diligence on the entity being sold and the relevant industry, with the firm consistently meeting the demanding timelines set by the Government for such privatizations.
Our Senior Partner, M. Umar Shereef, previously served as the senior consultant to the Government of Pakistan’s Privatization Commission, where he played a crucial role in drafting privatization laws, rules, and regulations. His contributions were instrumental during the peak of the country’s privatization program.
