Our clients range from Swedish and international blue-chip companies, private equity sponsors and corporates, investment banks and other financial institutions, and investment funds, to starts-ups.
Our team has extensive experience of Swedish and international transactions and has acted as lead and local counsel in several high-profile buyout transactions and complex acquisitions on behalf of Swedish clients investing in foreign entities and international clients coming to the Swedish market.
We work closely with our Equity Capital Market and Public M&A and Banking & Finance and Debt Capital Market teams, and have long-standing relationships with leading foreign law firms. This enables us to deliver integrated teams and seamless advice and services across practice areas and jurisdictions in the most complex and challenging M&A transactions.
