“The significance of the NLB´s Acquisition of N Banka d.d. deal was, ultimately, impossible for the two-tiered panel of voters to ignore, despite the fact that this year’s line-up of deals was the most competitive to date,” commented CEE Legal Matters Managing Editor Radu Cotarcea. “Our congratulations go out to BOPA for the critical role they played in making this deal happen and we’re looking forward to reporting on, and perhaps celebrate similar awards for, their future deals.”
“This prestigious award is not only a recognition of our hard work but also a reminder of our commitment to providing exceptional legal services to our clients. We will continue to strive for excellence in everything we do and remain dedicated to delivering the best possible outcomes for our clients. I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to our clients for entrusting us with their business and legal matters. It is an honor to be part of their success stories.” said BOPA Managing Partner Vladimir Bojanovic.
