OPENING NEW POSITIONS TO SUPPORT OUR GROWTH IN INCENTIVE PLAN RELATED SERVICES 

 

Lago Kapital Oy is a financial services provider founded in 2012, specializing in algorithm-based market access services for listed companies. As the leading market maker in the Nordics, we also provide services such as share buybacks, share lending, and stabilization measures in connection with listings. 

 

In 2022, we expanded our operations into the share-based payments segment. Our administration service covers option plans, bonus programs as well as share saving programs. Our valuation services include everything from plain vanilla to the most complex simulations (IFRS2, IFRS9, IFRS13). Being a regulated market participant we also offer market access when earned shares need to be purchased or employee options need to be converted into cash.
