Mallesons retained Brattle to assist in advising Heidelberg Materials on its acquisition of Maas Group Holdings Limited’s construction materials business, which recently received clearance from the Australian Competition & Consumer Commission (ACCC). The Brattle team, led by Principal Dr. Luke Wainscoat, provided economic and data analysis in support of the merger clearance process, and the transaction was the first merger to receive Phase 1 clearance subject to conditions under Australia’s new merger control regime. Additional contributors include Edward Wang and Jacob Kemp.
