Furthermore, Nordic Capital has a strong alignment with RiskPoint’s business philosophy and strategy and is very pleased to be partnering with RiskPoint to support the continued growth and its vision of being the Underwriter of Choice,” says Christopher Ekdahl, Managing Director, Nordic Capital Advisor.
