Praised as being ‘always top of the game’, the corporate, commercial and M&A practice group housed by Kromann Reumert has the bandwidth to handle the full spectrum of complex, cross-border transactions. Jointly leading the department, ’remarkable problem solving lawyer’ Bent Kemplar leads out of Copenhagen while Tyge Rasmussen is head of the group in Aarhus. Christian Lundgren comes highly recommended for his ‘solution-oriented and pragmatic approach’, while Henrik Møgelmose advises industrial and financial businesses and private equity funds on disposals and acquisitions, mergers, IPOs and share issuances. ’Legend’ in the M&A space Marianne Philip remains in-demand and is another key contact alongside Jacob Høeg Madsen, who specialises in financial regulation, fund formations, alternative investments and M&A.
