A Wiersholm core team comprising of Kai Thøgersen, Kristian Elvestad Ottesen, Birgitte Meistad Hermansen and Kjersti Fjone Yttervik are proud to have advised Visma in connection with the exiting changes in its investor base, where the team has advised on all aspects of the transaction, all from secondary sale, share exchanges and facilitation for around 20 new investors etc.

If completed, it is no doubt that Visma’ continued journey as the leading provider of mission-critical cloud software in Europe and Latin-America will be strengthened as a result!

Further, we want to congratulate Hg who will continue its 17-year long investment in the business with a majority stake! What a journey!

Referring to Visma, CEO Merete Hverven stated in the announcement on the deal:

“We are delighted to receive this further vote of confidence from Hg and other several leading investors, in a transaction that confirms our stellar development and attractive outlook. Visma delivers the digital tools that businesses need to drive efficiency, innovate and stay competitive. Supported by a solid and knowledgeable shareholder base, we are perfectly positioned to continue our unique growth journey”.

Wiersholm is truly grateful for the trust and to also have worked alongside the competent teams in Skadden & Linklaters, in addition to many other international advisors!

What a great way to start Christmas!
