Advokat Ukraina | Juridisk bistand ved investeringer og transaksjoner

NORDIC DESK

The Nordic Desk at ArsLegem serves as a strategic gateway for businesses and institutions from Norway, Sweden, and Denmark, providing legal clarity, risk mitigation, and cross-border support in Ukraine. Led by Norwegian advocate Steinar Jessen, in collaboration with ArsLegem’s experienced Ukrainian legal team, we offer a one-stop legal solution tailored to the needs of Nordic investors, businesses, and public institutions.

While the ongoing Russian invasion has impacted foreign investments, many sectors in Ukraine remain active and offer compelling opportunities, particularly in regions unaffected by direct military actions. Governments across the Scandinavian region have demonstrated strong support for Ukraine, not only through humanitarian and military aid but also by launching economic initiatives to stimulate private investment. These programs - ranging from equity investments to loans and insurance-backed financing - create new avenues for Scandinavian businesses and institutions to engage with Ukraine’s evolving economy.
