Castres &Snellman advised Finnish Industry Investment and Finda in their significant investments, made together with a fund managed by Taaleritehdas, in Rauma Marine Constructions (RMC), a pioneer in arctic shipbuilding. The total value of the investments is EUR 19 million. RMC’s strengthened position is yet another indication of the recovery of the Finnish shipbuilding industry and allows RMC to carry out major shipbuilding projects.

RMC is a Finnish-owned shipyard with leading-edge expertise and technology in this field. Strategically, RMC specialises in the construction and maintenance of multi-purpose icebreakers, car ferries and naval vessels.
