Olswang’s Berlin office has won a key role on Germany’s largest commercial real estate deal so far this year, with Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer also acting on the €740m (£652m) transaction.

The deal, which has handed roles to a raft of law firms, has seen Dundee International become the first-ever Canadian real estate investment trust (REIT) to enter the European market, investing around €740m in a German real portfolio.
