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%.

While Martin Krejčí and Josef Kříž assisted with negotiating and drafting the transaction documentation, Vlastimil Pihera with the assistance of Matúš Kovačič were in charge of representing the fund in the proceedings before the Czech National Bank.

The J&T ARCH INVESTMENTS fund is the J&T Group’s main investment platform.
