Rolf Larsson, Partner/Lawyer

Profile

I am co-head of Setterwalls’ EU and Competition Law Team and have substantial experience from the sector representing both domestic and international clients.

With an active practice spanning over three decades at both competition authorities and law firms, I have built a strong legacy within my areas of expertise and am continuously recognised as a trusted advisor for a diverse range of key clients across industries such as healthcare, banking and finance, telecommunications, industry, retail, as well as public authorities and state-owned enterprises. My practice covers areas such as corporate acquisitions, cartels and collaborations, dominant companies, and state aid.

My practice is a testament to my proficiency in navigating the sector, handling cartels and collaborations, addressing issues related to dominant companies, and providing strategic counsel on state aid matters. My extensive experience positions me as a valuable partner, ready to bring unparalleled insights and tailored solutions.
