Capital Markets
Capital market transactions are complex processes that require expertise in a regulatory framework and a market practice under constant development. Companies, shareholders, advisors and other operators on the securities market must at all times manoeuvre within an evolving regulatory framework, which is subject to increased government supervision.
Our lawyers are among Norway's foremost experts on capital market transactions and securities law. We assist issuers, facilitators and other operators across industries and business sectors and use our expertise to find good commercial solutions tailored to our clients' needs.
