RTPR, local adviser for Aramco on A&O Shearman led transaction regarding Aramco’s investment in HORSE Powertrain Limited, a JV established by Renault Group and Geely

 
 
RTPR acted as Romanian legal counsel in relation to Aramco’s acquisition of 10% equity interest in HORSE Powertrain Limited, the new global powertrain solutions company, alongside Renault Group, Zhejiang Geely Holding Group and Geely Automobile Holdings Limited. Aramco is one of the world’s leading integrated energy and chemicals companies. HORSE Powertrain Limited was formed on May 31, 2024, by Renault Group and Geely and is incorporated and headquartered in London, UK.

The transaction was signed at the end of June and is subject to customary regulatory approvals. The price to be paid at closing will be based on a EUR 7.4 billion enterprise valuation.

The deal was coordinated by A&O Shearman, the project team being led by Aramco relationship partner, Andrew Schoorlemmer and including partner Frédéric Moreau and senior associate Sam Brooks, as well as other A&O Shearman specialised senior lawyers handling long-term product supply agreements, R&D and IP arrangements streams.

The RTPR team was coordinated by Costin Taracila (Managing Partner) and Marina Fecheta-Giurgica (Senior Associate) closely assisted by George Capota (Junior Associate) and further included Andrei Tosa (Managing Associate), Diana Dimitriu (Senior Associate), Flavia Mincu (Associate), Irina Marinescu and Maria Luca (Junior Associates) for due diligence matters. Partner Roxana Ionescu alongside Serban Halmagean (Associate) and Daria Spatariu (Junior Associate) are assisting with FDI matters related to the transaction.

Together with our colleagues at A&O Shearman, we were privileged to advise on the complexities of this deal across multiple jurisdictions. This is yet another example that further demonstrates our capacity to navigate the challenges of a cross-border deal and deliver top-tier legal solutions for our clients”, said Marina Fecheta-Giurgica, Senior Associate at RTPR.

RTPR and A&O Shearman have been working together for many years on some of the largest and complex transactions and projects in the region and have repeatedly pooled their teams to provide services perfectly tailored to the needs of the clients on regional matters.
