Financial Services

Securities offerings and asset management often take place on a cross-border basis, and new financial products are being developed. Accordingly, high demands are imposed on the financial institutions and their customers.

We advise a number of leading Danish and foreign financial institutions, including asset managers, on regulatory matters in Denmark. We also have broad experience in assisting Danish clients with structuring financial products abroad, where we benefit from our wide network of contacts with leading law firms abroad.

Kromann Reumert's Financial Services team is a leading player in Denmark in this field, and our team, which is the largest in Denmark, comprises more than 20 highly specialised lawyers with experience across the whole range of financial institution regulatory work.

We provide advice in relation to:

• banking and mortgage credit institution activities
• insurance and pensions
• investment funds and investment management companies
• asset management and custody, and
• derivatives.

Our lawyers have extensive expertise in financial regulation and case law, including in relation to the Danish Financial Business Act, the Danish Act on Investment Funds, etc., the Danish Supervision of Company Pension Funds Act, the Danish Act on Measures to Prevent Money Laundering and Financing of Terrorism, the Danish Payment Services Act, the Danish Insurance Mediation Act, and the Danish Securities Trading Act.

We are also widely experienced in representing clients in their relations to the Danish Financial Supervisory Authority and other relevant authorities. Our specialists include former employees of the Danish Financial Supervisory Authority and financial institutions.

We work closely together with the firm's other practice areas and benefit from the knowledge and experience of our colleagues particularly in the Banking and Finance, Capital Markets, Insurance, Employment and Labour Law, and Mergers and Acquisitions practice groups.
