Chambers Review
CMS and Wistrand joined forces in November 2023 to form CMS Wistrand. The firm offers a range of capabilities, with a strong track record in contributing to international deals. It is particularly picked out for the international capabilities and experience within its banking and finance department, and is regularly seen advising on complex multicurrency facilities and financing arrangements to fund cross-border activity. The team also supplies regulatory advice and support on complex international structured finance and securitisation arrangements.
CMS Wistrand also has experience in international mandates across its M&A and dispute resolution teams. It is often engaged in leading pan-Nordic cross-border issues in conjunction with local counsel firms, while it also works as a local or strategic counsel on more wide-ranging global mandates, often for US companies with Swedish subsidiaries.
