Advising J&T ARCH INVESTMENTS on Acquisition of Shares in Moneta Money Bank

A team led by Jan Lasák advised J&T ARCH INVESTMENTS on the acquisition of a stake in leading Czech bank Moneta Money Bank. The fund already purchased 8.89% from Petrus Advisers in July. The second stage of the transaction and the acquisition of another 1.1% stake was completed on December 23. The fund has received approval from the Czech National Bank to acquire up to 19.99%.
