Hogan Lovells advised the Nordea Group (the largest financial group in Scandinavia) on transferring the managing capabilities from Nordea OFE to Aegon PTE. The transaction was finalised on 1st September 2017.

Through the merger of Nordea OFE and Aegon OFE (when taking into consideration the current number of members in both funds) this will become the fourth largest pension fund on the market in terms of membership and asset value.

The value of the transaction has not been released to the public.

Legal advisor Beata Balas-Noszczyk (the Managing Partner in the Warsaw office of Hogan Lovells) supervised and coordinated the project. The Hogan Lovells transaction team consisted of:
•    Tomasz Żak, Mateusz Mazurkiewicz, and Michał Białobrzeski – Corporate and M&A Group,
•    Karol Ruszkowski – Financial Institutions Group,
•    Andrzej Dębiec, Dorota Walerjan, and Joanna Fiema-Kurek – Tax Group,
