Niederer Kraft Frey (NFK) advised a group led by UBS and formed by 15 other institutions on the additional financing to be provided to DSS+, a consulting firm. The injection of liquidity will allow the planned acquisitions of ETSCAF and Infrata, securing DSS+ position in the consultancy market. The two firms respectively focus on, in ETSCAF case, infrastructure consulting and, in Infrata case, engineering solution and human resources.
