VINGE ADVISES ON SALE OF IPEER

October 03, 2014

Vinge has advised Applewise in conjunction with its sale of Ipeer, Sweden’s leading corporate supplier of cloud- and hosting-based services, to TeliaSonera.

Ipeer had a turnover of SEK 56.7 million in 2013. The company has 65 employees and conducts operations in Stockholm, Karlstad and India.

As a result of the acquisition, Ipeer will constitute a part of Cygate’s operations within Telia Sverige’s corporate operations and will be included within Cygate’s cloud and hosting services division.

Vinge’s team consisted of partner Johan Göthberg together with, among others, associates Charlotta Järnstedt, Maria Dahlin, Linn Gustavsson and project assistant Josefine Malm.

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.
