New shareholders NPEX

NPEX, the SME exchange in The Hague, will have two new shareholders in addition to its current major shareholders, including the Dutch State. These are a fintech company and a company that manages the assets of wealthy families. After a difficult phase and a relaunch of NPEX in 2018, they want to use a capital injection to stimulate the growth and marketability of the alternative financing platform. The first goal is to further digitalise the platform and broaden the product range. The ultimate goal is to eventually grow into the first pan-European SME exchange.

Douwe Egberts goes public for the third time

The coffee company made its first appearance at Beursplein 5 in 1982. Because its former American parent company, which would later be known as Sara Lee, decided to delist the company shortly after, its initial run on the exchange only lasted until 1984.

Recycling firm Renewi listed on the Amsterdam exchange

Anglo-Dutch waste processor Renewi is to be listed on the Amsterdam exchange. The company, which was created in 2016 after a merger between the British Shanks and the Dutch Van Gansewinkel, is already listed on the London Stock Exchange. No new shares will be issued. The purpose of the second listing in Amsterdam just before Britain’s exit from the European Union is to increase interest in the sustainable nature of the business among Benelux investors, where the company has the largest presence. Via this detour, Van Gansewinkel has finally managed to make it to Beursplein 5 after almost 10 years.
