Vaekstkapital Sets New Standard for Alternative Investments in Sweden with Self-Capitalized Strategy

Nordic asset management group Vaekstkapital has established a new footprint in Sweden with an innovative investment model that prioritizes transparency and trust. Headquartered in Luxembourg and now active with a Stockholm office, Vaekstkapital invests its own capital before inviting external investors to ensure aligned interests and shared risk from the outset.

CEO Simon Otterstedt emphasizes the company's focus on alternative investments, including real estate, credit infrastructure, and growth companies. Historically, Vaekstkapital has delivered around 20% annual returns on rental properties and approximately 50% on property development projects, significantly outperforming stock market averages. The firm targets returns at least double that of the stock market.

A flagship example is the SEE project in Sofia, Bulgaria, where Vaekstkapital has become the largest private landlord, owning about 250 apartments with 800 more under construction, catering primarily to younger demographics seeking affordable housing. Additionally, the company is expanding into North Macedonia, responding to strong demand by developing 1,000 apartments.

Vaekstkapital underscores thorough due diligence and transparent communication about risks and opportunities, with all funds Swedish-registered and managed responsibly. This approach aims to revolutionize Sweden's alternative investment market by fostering long-term value creation and greater investor confidence.
