Jefferies’ Post

Jefferies is proud to have acted as Sole Advisor to RSBG/RAG-Stiftung and Masco S.r.l. on the sale of Masco Group to Ardian with a reinvestment from the Borella family. The transaction further consolidates Jefferies’ industry expertise and global advisory leadership in Life Sciences Tools M&A and strengthens its primacy in the Italian healthcare space. We wish Ardian, the Borella family and the Masco Group team much success in their journey.

Energy and environmental policy are at the forefront of the election cycle, with climate change being a key issue for voters and candidates.

Jefferies served as Sole Global Coordinator, Bookrunner, and Financial Advisor to Centerbridge Partners, L.P. and Gallatin Point Capital LLC on the sale of up to 21.5% of their controlling stake in Phoenix Holdings, valued at approximately $558 million.
