DLA Piper advises Impact Bridge on its stake in Ecoalf

DLA Piper has advised impact investment manager Impact Bridge on a EUR7 million loan to Ecoalf, the Spanish sustainable fashion brand globally recognised for its circular model based on recycled materials.

The operation aims to support Ecoalf’s national and international growth, reinforcing the environmental and social commitments of the brand, which currently has more than 14 own shops and a presence in more than 1,000 multi-brand outlets.

The establishment of impact covenants linking the interest rate of the loan to the fulfilment of these sustainability objectives demonstrates the commitment of both parties to undertake environmentally and socially responsible investments.

The DLA Piper team leading the legal advice is composed of Yoko Takagi, partner, and Marta Clemente, legal director.

We are very proud to join Impact Bridge, a fund manager focused on combining profitability and impact, in this transaction with Ecoalf. These types of investments not only generate economic value, but also drive positive change in society and the environment

Yoko Takagi, partner at DLA Piper.
