What we did

Our client was a privately owned international financial services business. Following Brexit, the business decided to relocate its European headquarters via the reverse takeover of a business in Scandinavia. 

A partner in Rupert Merson LLP was asked to chair the board of directors of the newly acquired Scandinavian business and supervise the setting up of new governance arrangements and recruiting a new management team to satisfy the regulators and meet the needs of the business post Brexit. Our partner stood down from the board after 18 months when the project was completed successfully.
