Our cross-border capabilities, experience in Korea and strength in all areas related to M&A helped Fila to acquire the vaunted Titleist and FootJoy brands in a competitive bidding process that included some of the biggest names in private equity and the sports industry. The groundbreaking $1.225 billion deal was the largest Korean acquisition of a global brand in history. It also made Fila a player in the golfing industry and expanded its presence worldwide, particularly in rapidly growing Asian markets.
