Bridgepoint Capital, the European buy-out firm, has cemented its relationship with the Nordic region by opening an office in Sweden.

A team of three will be working between the London office, where a dedicated Nordic team has worked since 1995, and Stockholm. Graham Oldroyd, director, Christopher Busby, investment director, and Chris Bell, investment executive, will all be shuttling between the two offices. They will spend around four days a week in Sweden, with one day in London working with the UK teams of Nordic banks.
