Our role in the transaction

This successful transaction originated from the combined expertise from Oaklins’ Danish and Dutch TMT sector teams. Oaklins' team in Denmark advised TSS in connection with the acquisition of FDC. Oaklins' team in the Netherlands has a long-standing relationship with TSS and introduced the Danish team, who executed the transaction. This deal is another example of the seamless cross-border cooperation within Oaklins, demonstrating the organization’s added value through its global execution capabilities, industry expertise and contacts.

Parties
“Oaklins has in-depth industry expertise in software and IT, and they really understand the industry's opportunities.
