Vaekstkapital Sweden, part of a Nordic capital management group headquartered in Luxembourg, is reshaping the alternative investment landscape by investing its own capital first before inviting external investors. This strategy, emphasized by CEO Simon Otterstedt, fosters transparency and aligns the interests of the company and its investors, sharing both risks and rewards from the outset.

The company rigorously selects investments and openly communicates risks and opportunities, reinforcing its commitment to transparency, long-term engagement, and responsible capital management. All their funds are registered in Sweden and delivered directly to investors’ accounts, illustrating their dedication to openness and accountability in alternative investments.
