"We are delighted to have acted for this club of highly respected investors on a major inward investment deal for Qatar. The deal underscores our ability to execute complex and challenging deals in Qatar and demonstrates the enormous potential of the Qatari economy in what has been a miserable year for M&A and private equity players in the region and across the world. We offer our warmest congratulations to our clients on what we are sure will prove to be a very successful investment."
