What's the Webinar About?

Most investor actions in Europe have thus far been brought in the UK, the Netherlands, or Germany.  But in recent years, actions have also been commenced in Scandinavian jurisdictions, notably Denmark and Sweden (e.g., Ericsson, Danske, Novo Nordisk, Pandora, OW Bunker, and Vestas Winds).  What’s precipitated these actions?  Are there unique risks to litigating in Scandinavia?  Are more actions planned there?

This webinar will discuss what you need to know before joining actions in Scandinavia.

  • Why are actions in Denmark and Sweden unique?
  • Have they succeeded this far?
  • What are the unique risks in joining actions there?
  • Are actions in Finland and Norway also likely?
  • What tools are needed to assess Scandinavian actions?
  • How do you choose between competing actions?
