Carnegie recognised as Best Investment Bank in Denmark and Sweden

Carnegie has been recognised as the Best Investment Bank in Denmark and Sweden by the international business magazine Euromoney. The awards were announced on 11 July at the Euromoney’s 2013 Awards for Excellence. The award is a collective assessment of a number of competences, such as advisory in mergers and acquisitions (M&A), equity capital markets transactions (ECM) and debt capital markets transactions (DCM).

Euromoney’s comments on the Danish award:

“The Nordic investment bank Carnegie strengthened its Danish corporate finance in 2011. During the award period, this effort was rewarded by a number of high profile transactions in M&A and ECM. In aggregate, Carnegie advised on USD 5.3 billion of ECM and M&A transactions in the past year.”

Euromoney’s comments on the Swedish award:

Although Carnegie’s strength in DCM is developing well, it has an established and powerful franchise in ECM and M&A advisory and, in the past year, it has executed several high profile and complex equity transactions as well as private M&A deals, making it the best investment bank in Sweden.

Björn Jansson, Head of the business area Investment Banking & Securities, comments:

“We are proud of these awards that measure the breadth within investment banking. Our ambition is to be perceived by our clients as the leading financial adviser in the Nordics, whether it concerns capital raising, strategic advisory, equity research or brokerage. The awards from Euromoney are a signal that we are on the right track. It’s all about teamwork in which we have managed to piece together the various components into a well-functioning unit, all to guide our clients to better business.”
