Sweden has the world’s top private equity firms according to the financial information group Thomas Financial. Their figures show Swedish buyout firms have given average yearly returns to investors of 27.2% during the last decade. This outperforms both the European average of 12.5% and the American average of 13.6 %.
With Stockholm as their base, Nordic Capital, EQT, Industri Kapital and Altor private equity firms, have built up their businesses specialising in buying up large, established, profitable companies in relatively developed branches.
Due to these exceptionally high returns, there has been huge investor interest in their buyout funds, leading to Sweden’s enviable position as world leader in the private equity sector.
