CMA CGM will remain a minority shareholder with 10% of the GGS terminal and will continue to be a major user of the facility.

The disposal of GGS enables CMA CGM to strengthen its financial structure in line with the plan communicated at the time of NOL’s acquisition in June 2016.

BNP Paribas and HSBC acted as financial advisors and Willkie Farr & Gallagher acted as legal advisor to CMA CGM.
