What Does the Transfer Involve?

After working on a portfolio transfer for the last quarter, we are pleased to announce that Equro has taken over a significant portfolio of companies – registered with Euronext Securities Oslo «VPS» – from a large bank.

Equro, a leading provider of shareholder administration services, has had strong organic growth in issuer services over the last year. With this portfolio transfer, we have become one of the largest registrars for VPS-registered companies in Norway, and we are already the largest registrar for unlisted companies in Norway and one of the largest in Europe.


This Is What Equro's Leadership Says

"We are pleased to welcome our new clients to Equro," said CEO of Equro, Anders Viken Tøftemo. "This portfolio transfer is a significant achievement for our company, and we are committed to providing the same high-quality services that our clients have come to expect from us. We look forward to a long and fruitful relationship with our new clients, and we will continue to invest time and resources to giving the best customer service to our new and existing customers - to meet their evolving needs."

What does the transfer mean for clients?

Equro's mission is to simplify the complex world of shareholder management, and this portfolio transfer is a testament to the company's success in achieving that goal. Equro's team of experienced professionals is a full-service provider that offer a wide range of services, including registrar services (for companies in the Norwegian CSD), online share ledger (for unlisted companies), systems for KYC/AML, solutions for brokers, lawyers and the project finance sector as well as helping all clients with their tax reporting.

With the portfolio transfer, Equro now manages about 2,400 companies in Norway with VPS and “Equro” combined, making us the largest Registrar in the country. Our company's expertise, combined with the commitment to innovation and customer service, positions Equro well for continued growth and success.

Thanks to the bank and Euronext Securities Oslo

We also want to thank the bank for handling this portfolio transfer smoothly and professionally. The collaboration has worked very well, and we hope that customers will experience that we go to great lengths to provide extremely good service! Furthermore, we would like to thank Euronext Securities Oslo "VPS" for handling this in a very professional way and information flow around this process.
