Carey Olsen advises on the FSN Capital Confluence €588 million continuation fund

FSN Capital Confluence acquired Nordlo, a leading Nordic managed IT service provider, and Saferoad, a European leader in road safety and infrastructure solutions, both previously part of the FSN Capital V portfolio. The acquisitions aim to accelerate organic growth and pursue strategic M&A opportunities.

LGT Capital Partners led the investment in the continuation fund, with significant support from new and existing investors, achieving a notable rollover rate from FSN Capital V investors who were offered a status quo rollover option to invest in FSN Capital Confluence at current terms, or to use the transaction to generate liquidity. FSN Capital Confluence was significantly oversubscribed and attracted leading institutional investors, including endowments, pension funds and asset managers from around the world.

The Carey Olsen team comprising partners James Mulholland and Claire Le Quesne, counsel Arindam Madhuryya and Thomas MacAdie, senior associate Ed Kelleher, and associates Jonathan Fernandes and Hollie Herman, advised on all Jersey law aspects relating to the transaction including structuring, establishment, regulation, deal implementation and financing.

James Mulholland said: "Our Jersey investment funds team is pleased to have supported our long-standing client on this very significant transaction. This transaction highlights Carey Olsen’s expertise in secondary transactions in general and GP-led continuation funds in particular. This deal is a testament to our ability in supporting leading private equity firms in achieving their goals."
