Denmark > Capital markets

Praised as an ‘outstanding’ capital markets team, Plesner acts on the full suite of both issuer and underwriter-side mandates including accelerated book-builds, IPOs, and securities listings. ‘Incredible lawyer’ Thomas Holst Laursen and M&A expert Nicolai Ørsted jointly head up the equity side of the practice and are key points of contact for IPOs, public takeovers, ABBs, PIPEs, rights issuances and corporate governance work. For debt capital markets transactions, Søren Thyssen Valerius and Jakob Echwald Sevel lead in conjunction with Henrik Kure. Henrik Laursen comes recommended for his cross-border ECM practice, which emphasises IPOs and public M&A. Janus Jepsen was promoted to the partnership in early 2023.
