Clifford Chance counsels Lenus on financing hospital acquisition in Colombia

Clifford Chance has counselled Lenus Capital Partners (Lenus) on financing the acquisition of 100% of Hospital Medicadiz in Ibagué, Colombia.

Gramercy Funds Management structured and led the financing of the acquisition, with the participation of Compass Group.

Thanks to this acquisition, Lenus expands the number of beds it owns to 1,000, making it one of the largest healthcare operators in Colombia. This transaction is part of Lenus’ strategy to invest in the local healthcare sector through acquisitions and investments, and to improve healthcare in Colombia’s intermediate cities.

Clifford Chance’s finance team consisted of partner Hugo Triaca (pictured left), associate Andres Berry and counsel David Rondon in New York. Partner Avrohom Gelber (pictured right) and law clerk Caroline Koo advised on tax matters and associate Milica Pavlovic provided ERISA advice.
