Allen & Gledhill advised CVC Capital Partners (“CVC”) and the sellers, as transaction counsel, on the 100% sale of PT Softex Indonesia, a leading personal care business in Indonesia, to Kimberly-Clark Corporation for an aggregate purchase price of US$1.2 billion.
This transaction involved deploying a U.S.-style warranty and indemnity insurance policy (“W&I”) for an Indonesian transaction, as opposed to the more customary Asian W&I insurance policy.

Advising CVC and the sellers were Allen & Gledhill Partners Prawiro Widjaja, Elsa Chen and Eugene Ho and Senior Associate Jessie Lim and Associate David Ho.
