Season 2, Episode 1 – What is it really like investing for the future of millions of Swedish people? The purpose and importance of Scandia’s alternative investment team.

In this episode of Careers in Finance, we dive into the work of Skandia’s Alternative Investment Team together with Sophie Kulp-Tåg, Senior Investment Manager, and Stefan Fällgren, Head of Private Equity & Infrastructure.

They share how their approach differs from traditional private equity firms and why long-term strategy is key to their work. What is it like to invest billions in private equity and infrastructure, without knowing exactly what you’re buying?

We also discuss the weight of responsibility that comes with managing the pension savings of over one million Swedes, and how purpose and performance go hand in hand.
