An integrated team of D&B David și Baias and PwC Romania tax and legal services consultants assisted OncoCard associates in the sale of the private hospital for oncology diagnosis and treatment in Brasov to MedLife.

“The Romanian medical services market is evolving towards consolidation. Specialist services and the use of the latest treatments and technologies influence purchasing decisions, so companies offering them are highly sought after. We are pleased to provide assistance to Romanian entrepreneurs building businesses that are successful for both the economy and society,” says Ionuț Simion, Country Managing Partner, PwC Romania.

For the hospital transaction, PwC Romania, represented by Country Managing Partner Ionuț Simion, provided fiscal advice. The D&B David și Baias team, coordinated by Sorin David, Managing Partner, with Romana Petre, Senior Lawyer, and Andreea Tortov, Collaborating Lawyer, provided legal M&A assistance throughout the transaction and will advise the client until the sale process has been completed.

"The D&B David și Baias M&A team has had an outstanding last quarter of this year, with several transactions successfully completed and the OncoCard sale further enhancing our reputation in the healthcare market. We are honoured by the confidence that Romanian entrepreneurs have shown in us to represent them in complex and large-scale projects that give us the opportunity to demonstrate the professionalism of our team”, said Sorin David, Managing Partner D&B David and Baias.

The transaction was signed in November and will be finalised in 2020, after receiving the Competition Council’s approval.
