Financial advisory firm deVere Group has opened a Stockholm office, the first of three new offices it plans to open in Scandinavia. Mark Saunders has been appointed to manage the firm's expansion in the region. He previously worked at Trafalgar International and joined the deVere Group in its Geneva office earlier this year. The Swedish opening is part of the deVere's global expansion plans to open 12 offices in 2012, and to have 100 worldwide within the next five years.
