Firm: Allens (Australian Unity).
Value: $65 million.
Area: Corporate.
Key players: The Allens team was led by partner Mark Malinas, who was supported by senior overseas practitioner Jon van der Walt.
Deal significance: Mr Malinas congratulated Australian Unity on what he called a “significant acquisition”, consistent with the company’s growth strategy.
“The combination of Australia’s ageing population and renewed focus in the sector following the Aged Care Royal Commission is leading to a consolidation in the sector. We expect aged care will feature in the M&A headlines for some time,” he said.
