Nils Wilhelm Erik Penser ( born August 22 , 1942 , in Eslöv , Skåne ) is a Swedish financier and businessman . After having studied law at Lund University , Erik Penser commenced a career as a stockbroker at Bankirfirman Langenskiöld , which later became Carnegie Investment Bank . Together with Thomas Fischer he worked intensively to develop the firm 's business , laying the foundation for his private wealth . Penser 's strategy was risky ; he bought shares , used them as collateral and borrowed even more money to leverage his holdings . Eventually he gained the controlling interest of several large companies on the Stockholm Stock Exchange . During the 1980s Penser was one of Sweden 's most influential businessmen . Through his holding company , Yggdrasil , he controlled both Nobel Industrier and Finans AB Gamlestaden . His massive financial leverage and the harsh business environment experienced during the Swedish banking crisis in 1990 - 1994 forced Penser to cease control of his holdings , which were sold to Nordbanken ( which became Nordea ) for the symbolic sum of SEK 1 each . At a press conference Björn Wahlström , the chairman of Nordbanken , said that Erik Penser was ' destitute and finished as a businessman ' . The transaction resulted in a prolonged legal dispute between Penser and Nordbanken . In 1992 Penser regained control of Yggdrasil , the consideration was once again SEK 1 . The vice Chairman of Nordbanken , Jacob Palmstierna , admitted that Penser had been under extreme pressure when he was forced to sign the agreement with Nordbanken . Since then Penser has rebuilt an estimated net worth of SEK 1 billion , with interests in both Sweden and abroad . In Sweden , his main holdings includes Erik Penser Bankaktiebolag , with activities in corporate finance , trading , research and private wealth management and Pensum , an insurance and pension advisory firm .

A leveraged buyout (LBO) is a financial transaction in which a company is purchased with a combination of equity and debt, such that the company's cash flow is the collateral used to secure and repay the borrowed money. The use of debt, which has a lower cost of capital than equity, serves to reduce the overall cost of financing the acquisition. This reduced cost of financing allows greater gains to accrue to the equity, and, as a result, the debt serves as a lever to increase the returns to the equity. Mergers and acquisitions (M&A) are transactions in which the ownership of companies, other business organizations or their operating units are transferred or combined. As an aspect of strategic management, M&A can allow enterprises to grow, shrink, change the nature of their business or competitive position. Venture capital (VC) is a type of private equity, a form of financing that is provided by firms or funds to small, early-stage, emerging firms that are deemed to have high growth potential, or which have demonstrated high growth (in terms of number of employees, annual revenue, or both). Venture capital firms or funds invest in these early-stage companies in exchange for equityan ownership stakein the companies they invest in. Venture capitalists take on the risk of financing risky start-ups in the hopes that some of the firms they support will become successful. The start-ups are usually based on an innovative technology or business model and they are usually from the high technology industries, such as information technology (IT), social media or biotechnology.
