According to DLA Piper, "this transaction will strengthen Generali’s position in the insurance market and allow it to consolidate its operations, reduce operating costs, and increase the efficiency of its business processes."

The DLA Piper team was led by Partner Rafal Kluziak and included Counsels Magdalena Koniarska and Beata Mrozowska-Bartkiewicz, Senior Associates Piotr Rysiak and Olga Lesniewska, and Junior Associate Aleksander Stanek.
