Privatisation

Advising bidders and authorities on privatisation transactions.

Privatisation is a significant mechanism for driving economic reform, attracting investment, improving service delivery, and enhancing operational efficiency.

Our Privatisation practice is headed by the former Head of Legal of the Turkish Privatisation Administration and advises investors and financial institutions on the legal, regulatory, and commercial issues associated with privatisations.

Our team advises on a broad range of privatisation matters, including:
• Privatisation of government-owned businesses and assets
• Tender specifications and implementation agreements
• Concession arrangements
• Competitive tendering and procurement processes (including attendance)
• Transaction structuring and implementation strategies
• Regulatory reform and legislative frameworks
• Privatisation-related disputes and regulatory proceedings

We provide comprehensive legal support through:
• Advising clients in discussions with public authorities on privatisation strategies and transaction structures
• Supporting the preparation of and adherence to competitive procurement and tender processes
• Advising on regulatory approvals and policy implementation
• Supporting bidders, investors, and financiers throughout the process
• Providing strategic advice throughout the lifecycle of complex privatisation transactions

Successful privatisation requires more than transaction execution—it requires a thorough understanding of government policy, regulatory frameworks, stakeholder interests, commercial objectives, and long-term operational outcomes.

Our Privatisation practice has sound expertise and experience in privatisation processes, including those relating to electricity generation entities, electricity distribution companies, petroleum refineries, gas distribution networks, roads, ports, the National Lottery and other infrastructure assets.
