Stock exchange and securities law establishes key elements of the regulatory framework for many large and small businesses and has shown rapid development in recent years. Haavind follows this development closely and advises Norwegian and foreign companies listed on Oslo Børs and Oslo Axess, investors in listed securities, and investment banks and firms.
Our lawyers have extensive experience from stock exchange listings and transactions involving listed companies. We find good solutions by including the client on our team and combining experience with solid legal expertise, an orderly structure and creativity.
