Linklaters has been handed its first major instruction by French building materials giant Saint Gobain, advising on the company’s hostile offer for plasterboard maker BPB, in a deal worth up to $5.7bn (£3.23bn).
The instruction is a coup for Linklaters, which was chosen to act on the deal ahead of former advisers understood to include Slaughter and May and Macfarlanes.
