Private Equity and Venture Capital
Private equity and venture capital investors are key drivers of business transformation – from early-stage technology and growth companies to mature businesses in transition or in need of competent growth capital. Each stage presents different requirements for structure, governance and risk management, demanding advisers who understand both the commercial dynamics and the legal framework.
At Arntzen Grette, we advise investors, funds and managers across the full value chain, including:
- Structuring and establishing funds and investment companies, including financial regulatory advice
- Tax advice
- Strategic guidance and execution of investments in portfolio companies
- Designing incentive schemes, both at manager and portfolio level
- M&A advice, including acquisitions, disposals and business transfers – for investors, funds and their portfolio companies
We work closely with our specialist teams, including our market-leading technology practice, to deliver targeted, commercial and tailored advice – both in the Norwegian market and in international processes.
