Product Details

Alfonso Cortina, chair of Repsol-YPF S.A., accepted the award from the Financial Times for the best merger in the energy sector in 1999. The acquisition, which closed on June 28, 1999, boosted the firm's share price despite a strategy of hostile acquisition and significant change in the firm's capital structure.
