Scandinavian Trust and Nordea – a partnership that makes it easier for international businesses to locate to the Nordics

“We work with international structures that require high precision and understanding of regulations. It’s a challenge few can handle, but Nordea has shown that they can deliver. They have made complex processes both simple and secure, which saves time and reduces risks for our clients." 

"Furthermore, we have an adviser who is professional, dedicated and always ready to find solutions – also under time pressure. This is one of the main reasons why we continue to recommend Nordea to our international clients,” says Rebecka Fernkrans-Käller, Director of Legal Entities & Acquisition at Scandinavian Trust.

Nordea’s ISG team supports foreign-owned companies operating in the Nordics and ensures that subsidiaries are offered banking solutions that provide the best conditions for growth. 

Proactivity and quick problem solving

In recent years, the collaboration between Scandinavian Trust and Nordea’s ISG team has intensified. Nordea has actively supported them with everything from account openings to advanced cash management solutions – always with proactivity and efficient solutions.

“Availability and quick problem solving are absolutely crucial for businesses expanding abroad. Nordea has not only delivered on that – they have been a proactive partner who understands our needs and acts quickly. This creates security for us and for our clients,” says Jenny Lopes Da Silva, Director at Scandinavian Trust.

Relationships that build trust

Scandinavian Trust describes its collaboration with Nordea as a solution that combines security and efficiency for their international clients. They particularly highlight the smooth communication and professional management of complex regulations – factors that have built trust among their own clients. Through Scandinavian Trust, many businesses have chosen Nordea as their local bank in the Nordics, which has simplified the set-up process and created long-term relationships.

“We succeed when we work as a team. My role is to understand the customer’s needs and have a close dialogue with them, but it’s the expertise of the entire customer team that allows us to deliver a comprehensive solution. That’s how we build long-term relationships,” says Imran Qureshi, Relationship Manager in Nordea’s ISG team.

Looking forward: more opportunities to grow together

With a growing customer base and tougher requirements for international solutions, Scandinavian Trust looks forward to further develop its collaboration with Nordea.

“We see great opportunities to grow together and continue creating value for international companies in the Nordics. For us, it’s about combining local expertise with a global perspective,” concludes Rebecka Fernkrans-Käller.
