INLEX Law Firm acted as legal advisor to Banka Ekonomike Sh.A. in connection with the acquisition of the assets and liabilities of Türkiye İş Bankası A.Ş., Branch in Kosovo. The transaction represents one of the most significant and legally complex acquisitions in Kosovo’s banking sector to date. INLEX provided comprehensive legal support throughout the transaction, including the drafting and structuring of the asset and liability transfer agreement, as well as advising on compliance with applicable Kosovo legislation. Banka Ekonomike Sh.A., one of Kosovo’s leading financial institutions, further strengthened its market position through this acquisition, expanding its presence and service capacity within the sector. This transaction marks the second consecutive merger and acquisition successfully concluded by INLEX, following the acquisition of “Shtëpia Botuese Libri Shkollor” Sh.P.K. by “Dukagjini” Sh.P.K., in which the firm also provided full legal advisory services. The INLEX team on this matter was led by Attorneys at Law Shkumbin Asllani and Edita Ismaili, working in close coordination with Banka Ekonomike and other advisors involved in the transaction.
