Corporate/M&A

Wistrand assists both Swedish and international companies in their role as buyers, sellers or investors in connection with domestic and cross-border acquisitions, divestments and investments. We have a strong position as transaction advisor, and are constantly ranked as one of the leading Swedish law firms by Mergermarket, a global M&A analysis company, whose ranking charts depict the number of transactions completed.

A number of complex issues arise with a transaction. These are closely linked to the type of business being undertaken by the target company.
