Press release

RE:FI STHLM ranked by IFLR1000 for the first time

We are proud to announce that RE:FI STHLM has been ranked by IFLR1000 for the first time, placing it among leading Swedish banking and finance firms. IFLR1000 is a leading international guide to the world’s top financial and corporate law firms and lawyers, based on client feedback, transactional evidence and peer review.

We are also delighted that no less than five of our team members received individual recognition:

  • Johan Lundberg and Svante Hultqvist – Expert Consultants (the highest individual ranking)
  • Mirja Sikander, Sebastian Karlsson and Joachim Strand – Rising Stars

Both Sebastian Karlsson and Joachim Strand enter the rankings for the first time this year.

As a specialist firm focused exclusively on transactional finance and restructuring, our approach is built on the belief that this dedicated model delivers the best results. It is particularly rewarding to see this approach gain recognition so quickly, having only been established at the beginning of 2024.

With five individually ranked lawyers and a strong team of associates, RE:FI STHLM is among the Swedish firms with the strongest representation in banking and finance.

We are truly grateful to our clients and peers for their trust and recognition. This is just a first step, and we look forward to continuing to build our practice and taking further strides in the rankings in the years to come.
