For Financial Players

The sports industry is genuinely global. It is no surprise that it is the focus of attention for investment funds across the world. Extraordinary finance transactions are increasingly frequent and do not concern only big international clubs.

This means that clubs strive to align with international standards of transparent and efficient management, pursuing projects aimed at maximising corporate values, safeguarding equity and investments in the long term. New investors are focussed on guaranteeing their “trust” in the market. That is why the demand for specialised legal, tax and financial assistance is on the increase.
