Milbank advised Pemberton also in 2019 on the financing of the acquisition of Rameder by FSN Capital. Since then, Rameder has been building out its strong market position in the German market and expanded into Sweden, Finland and the Czech Republic via several add-on acquisitions.

Pemberton provides long-term financing to growth companies across Europe. It covers the German-speaking region out of its Frankfurt-based office and ranks as one of the most active private debt funds in Germany.

Rameder, headquartered in Germany, is a market leader in the distribution of automotive carrier systems and related accessories with online shops in more than 10 European countries and 200 employees. Since 1996, the firm offers, amongst others, tow-bars, roof racks, bicycle racks, ski boxes and other carrying accessories.

FSN Capital is a leading private equity investor in the Northern European region. FSN Capital Funds focus on making control investments in companies operating in the Northern Europe with enterprise values between €50 million and €300 million.
