FBC represented Generation Capital in the establishment and initial public offering (IPO) of the first infrastructure and energy investment fund to list on the TASE and a follow-on offering of shares and options.
Prior to the IPO and TASE listing, the fund issued shares in a private pre-IPO offering to classified investors.
With the significant rise in government-funded infrastructure projects in Israel in recent years, our clients, a partnership between two leading experts in the infrastructure field and the Viola private equity group have identified a need and demand for this new product and pioneered a successful IPO.
The fund is the first traded infrastructure and energy investment fund in Israel.
This months-long process has involved extensive discussions with various regulators, including the introduction of amendments to the bylaws of the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange to facilitate the listing of the fund and discussions with the Israel Securities Authority and the Israeli Tax Authority to enable the unique offering structure of the fund.
