Vinge advises EQT AB on its acquisition Coller Capital, a global secondaries firm with nearly USD 50 billion in total assets under management across institutional, private wealth and insurance-related capital.
This combination advances EQT’s ambition to build the most attractive private markets firm of scale, delivering industry-leading performance and solutions globally. Together, the two firms will be able to strengthen relationships and opportunities with institutional, private wealth and insurance-related clients while creating a deeper global EQT platform across private equity, infrastructure, real estate and secondaries.
The base consideration of USD 3.2 billion is to be funded through newly issued EQT ordinary shares, with up to USD 500 million in contingent consideration to be funded in cash.
Vinge's team primarily consisted of Sofie Bjärtun, Joel Magnusson, Maximilian Bengtsson (Capital Markets & Public M&A), Marcus Glader, Noelia Martinez (Regulatory), Mattias Schömer and Morgan Ödman (Corporate tax).
