Press release - 28 September 2021
The investment bank Largillière Finance, has accompanied Vashi, the brand of the jeweler Vashi Dominguez, for part of its fundraising of more than € 45 million (£ 40 million) dedicated to accelerate the development of its activities in England and its expansion in the United States.
This operation allows the investment bank to demonstrate once again the relevance of its approach, close to the interests of entrepreneurs, even in their international operations.
Beyond its technical expertise, Largillière Finance was chosen by the British company for its in-depth knowledge of the French and Swiss markets, allowing it to introduce the most relevant institutional investors such as family offices and asset management companies.
Working simultaneously between the UK, France and Switzerland?
Largillière Finance is not new to the business, as last April the French bank orchestrated the sale of British car manufacturer Caterham.
This new successful operation reinforces Largillière Finance's expertise in the UK market and, more generally, in assisting transactions in multicultural environments.
