Clairfield and UB Corporate Finance join forces in Finland<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Clairfield International, a top-ranked European-based global corporate finance partnership, and UB Corporate Finance, a Finnish investment banking boutique and wholly owned subsidiary of United Bankers, an asset management and investment firm listed on Nasdaq Helsinki, are pleased to announce a formal partnership. Effective 1 October, UB Corporate Finance has become Clairfield\u2019s exclusive partner for Finland, adding direct access to Finland\u2019s corporates, investors, and start-ups, as well as to Nordic companies through its role as a certified advisor on Nasdaq First North. The firm brings strong expertise in M&A as well as debt and equity capital markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Strengthening the Nordic presence<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

This agreement marks both firms\u2019 commitment to international growth and to delivering best-in-class international services to clients. The partnership further enhances Clairfield\u2019s presence in the Nordic region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Clairfield\u2019s global expertise<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Clairfield International advises entrepreneurs, multinational corporations, and financial investors on M&A and corporate finance solutions, with special expertise in crossborder situations through more than 30 country teams worldwide. In the past five years, Clairfield has completed over 780 transactions on behalf of clients, totalling more than EUR 30 billion in disclosed deal value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Opportunities in the Finnish M&A market<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The Finnish M&A market is dynamic and driven by technology, industrials, consumer products, and healthcare, all of which continue to show strong transaction activity. UB Corporate Finance has seen increasing demand from companies in these sectors exploring strategic growth and consolidation opportunities. While domestic transactions remain a mainstay, crossborder deals now represent more than one third of total activity, with a majority of UB Corporate Finance\u2019s sellers being very open to international buyers. This growing international dimension highlights the importance of Clairfield\u2019s global reach in connecting Finnish businesses with international investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
