Giovannelli e Associati launches the Antitrust and FDI Department with the joining of Matteo Farneti as Partner

Giovannelli e Associati launches the Antitrust and FDI Department with the joining of Matteo Farneti as Partner. He will be in charge of the practice.

Matteo Farneti has over twenty years of experience gained at leading national and international law firms, both in Italy and in Brussels, in the areas of Italian and European competition law, Italian FDI regulations governing foreign direct investment (the so-called “Golden Power”), in the field of consumer protection and unfair commercial practices, as well as in the regulation of media and publishing.

The Antitrust and FDI Department will work closely with the firm’s M&A and Corporate Department. The assessment of antitrust and FDI/Golden Power issues will be integrated into all phases of extraordinary transactions: from the preliminary feasibility analysis through the handling of notifications to the authorities and standstill obligations.

This integrated approach enables the firm to offer clients comprehensive and coordinated assistance, reduce execution times, and assess in a timely manner the regulatory risks that may affect the structure, timeline, and value of transactions.

With this addition, Giovannelli e Associati takes another step forward in its growth plan. The firm is expanding its service offering strategic practice to support M&A and private capital transactions and continues to grow its team.
