Professional highlights

Financing transactions. I advise on the full spectrum of financing transactions, including acquisition finance, project finance, syndicated and bilateral lending, refinancing, and capital raising, acting for both lenders and borrowers. This gives me a balanced understanding of the commercial priorities and execution challenges on both sides of a transaction, with particularly strong recent activity in the renewable energy sector.

I have advised on major project financing for the construction of renewable energy parks funded by multilateral institutions such as the European Investment Bank (EIB) and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), alongside commercial banks, including on the EIB’s first fully merchant renewable energy financing in the Baltic market, and on large-scale capital raises from international investors in solar, wind, storage, and hybrid energy parks.

I have advised on different corporate loans, including refinancings, and acted as Estonian local counsel on sustainability-linked syndicated loans to major energy groups.

I also support private equity and M&A transactions that require separate financing workstreams, including cross-border acquisitions, the sale of majority stakes to strategic international buyers, and early-stage and growth investments by private equity and venture capital investors.

Capital markets transactions. I advise issuers and arrangers on debt and equity capital markets transactions. I have repeatedly advised on public offerings of subordinated bonds and their admission to trading on the Nasdaq Tallinn market. In equity capital markets, I have advised on secondary public offerings and the listing of shares on Nasdaq Tallinn, including significantly oversubscribed offerings.

Licensing and regulatory matters. I advise clients on authorisation, licensing and ongoing supervisory compliance in their dealings with the Estonian Financial Supervision and Resolution Authority, and other regulators. I have advised international insurers on launching insurance products in the Estonian market, and other companies on obtaining financial activity licences, securing cross-border EU and EEA licences and qualifying holding acquisition proceedings.
