Skadden Arps Slate Meagher & Flom has closed another deal for London-based private equity house Doughty Hanson – the £472m sale of Italian automotive lubricants company FL Selenia to New York-based Vestar Capital Partners.

Skaddens private equity partner Allan Murray-Jones led the team advising Doughty, a client he has acted for since 1985. The US-based firm took local advice from Bonelli Erede Pappalardo managing partner Umberto Nicadano.
