Hamburg/Stuttgart, 18.09.2024 – The German federal government and the Federal State of Lower Saxony are injecting funds to stabilise Meyer Werft, an international shipbuilding group. Each is providing EUR 200 million in equity capital for this purpose, acquiring in return around 80% of the shares in Meyer Werft GmbH. In addition, the two governments are providing guarantees totalling EUR 2.6 billion.
A CMS team headed by Dr Henrik Drinkuth and Dr Alexandra Schluck-Amend advised the German federal government and the Federal State of Lower Saxony on all aspects of acquiring an equity interest.
Meyer Werft is an international group engaged in the design, building and sale of vessels such as cruise ships, river cruise ships and ferries, with facilities including three shipyards in Germany.
