Capital Markets

We advise Finnish and foreign corporations, major banks, unit trusts, and other financial institutions in their domestic and cross-border deals. Our services cover, among other things, initial public offerings and other public equity and warrant issues as well as de-listings.

We advise issuers and target companies in public mergers and acquisitions, including public tender offers, and assist in carrying out statutory acquisition proceedings. Our in-depth expertise enables us to assist our clients in all project phases, from structuring and negotiations to drafting prospectuses and relevant corporate documentation. We also provide advice on numerous day-to-day compliance matters for a number of issuers and handle communications with the Finnish FSA, stock exchanges, and other relevant market participants.

Members of our Capital Markets practice have been involved in all of the major structural arrangements of the Finnish securities markets. These include the merger of the Helsinki and Stockholm stock markets in 2003, the transfer of Finnish derivates trading to Eurex, the sale of the Finnish Central Securities Depository to VPC AB, and the acquisition of local securities exchanges in Lithuania and Copenhagen.
