SAHBANI

Managing Partner

Lazhar Sahbani has been advising senior executives, international groups, family offices, and investors for over twenty-five years on key strategic decisions, particularly in matters relating to group structuring, governance, international taxation, and high-impact wealth planning.

Educated at leading academic institutions, he built a significant part of his career within international consulting firms EY and PwC, as well as within global corporations.
This experience has enabled him to develop a rigorous understanding of complex, multicultural, and cross-border environments.

His professional journey has led him to work extensively between the Maghreb, the Gulf, Europe and Africa, close to decision-making centers, in contexts where economic, human, and wealth related balances require both deep insight and a high level of discretion.

He founded CLS & Strategy with the conviction that structural decisions must be supported by
directly involved senior teams, capable of combining technical expertise, long-term vision, and trusted relationships with decision-makers.

Structural decisions must be designed to endure, grounded in a nuanced understanding of local cultures and global trends
