Global law Firm White & Case LLP has expanded its Global Debt Finance Practice, Global Financial Institutions Industry Group and Global Private Capital Industry Group with the addition of Dr. Oskar Andrews as a partner in Stockholm.
"White & Case has highly experienced regional teams working across global financial markets and Oskar will add significant bench strength to our global debt finance capabilities," said White & Case partner Eliza McDougall, head of the Firm's Global Debt Finance Practice. "His reputation in the Nordic and international banking industry, together with his work advising on complex lender-side financings and restructurings, will be a welcome addition to the team as we continue supporting clients on these important matters."
Oskar is a recognized leader in the Swedish banking market and has a proven track record advising on out-of-court and in-court restructurings and insolvencies. He has worked closely with Nordic and international banks, private equity funds and listed companies and has experience across structured trade finance, trade finance, automotive and equipment finance, insurance-backed finance, project/infrastructure finance, supply chain and receivable finance, warehouse finance, ECA finance and borrowing-base facilities. Oskar was most recently Chief Executive Officer of DNB Finans AS, Sweden Branch, the asset finance arm of DNB Bank ASA in Sweden, and has previously held various senior management and directorship roles within DNB Sweden, including as Head of Legal (Sweden and Northern Europe). Prior to joining DNB Sweden in 2011, Oskar spent time working for top-tier Nordic law firms and worked as a law clerk and assistant judge within the Swedish court system.
White & Case partner and Vice Chair Oliver Brettle said: "Our continued investment in a truly integrated Global Debt Finance Practice with strong regional depth in the Nordics and Europe continues to be a priority for the Firm. Oskar's experience across complex financings, restructurings and special situations will enhance our ability to support banks and alternative capital providers in EMEA on complex cross-border transactions."
