VINGE ADVISES IZETTLE AB IN CONNECTION WITH CAPITAL RAISING

May 14, 2014

iZettle AB has carried out a directed new issue of approximately EUR 40 million to the private equity companies Zouk Capital, Dawn Capital and Intel Capital as well as to some of the company’s existing shareholders in order to develop its payment services solutions and continue its expansion within and outside Sweden.

iZettle AB makes it possible for businesses and private persons to receive card payments by downloading iZettle AB’s app to an iPhone or iPad (with or without a card reader).

Vinge’s team consisted of responsible partner Henrik Wenckert together with, among others, associates Malin Buch and Filip Brosset.  

New statute prohibits unfair terms and conditions and practices in conjunction with the purchase of agricultural and food products

The so-called UTP Act prohibits buyers from using certain terms and conditions and practices against suppliers of agricultural and food products. The Swedish Competition Authority exercises supervision and can, among other things, carry out unannounced inspections and order individual to attend formal interviews. In conjunction with violations, sanctions such as injunctions subject to a default fine or a sanction fee of up to one per cent of the buyer’s annual turnover can be imposed. The UTP Act will enter into force on 1 November 2021 and will also be applicable to contracts which are entered into prior to this date.

European Commission provides sanctions compliance guidance

The European Commission has recently issued three opinions regarding the interpretation of asset freeze provisions in certain sanctions legislation pertaining to Central African Republic, Ukraine, Libya and Syria. The opinions are also of relevance for other sanctions regimes which provide for the same or similar restrictions. Therefore, their practical relevance goes far beyond the sanctions regimes in the context of which they were issued and they therefore provide for helpful guidance regarding the required thresholds for sanctions compliance generally.
