The idea to launch Kreditfonden was hatched by Fredrik Sjöstrand and Peter Norman, who are also the founders of the management company. The macroeconomic picture and the conditions for a direct loan fund in the Scandinavian market were carefully analyzed. As a result of the financial crisis, new capital adequacy rules have been introduced that have greatly reduced the banks' willingness to finance companies. In conjunction with regulatory changes, such as a new AIF (Alternative Investment Fund) directive within the EU, the gameplan was opened for a fund of this kind, and Scandinavian Credit Fund I was founded.
In 2015, the company and our first fund Scandinavian Credit Fund I opened for trading in January 2016. From the first year having a capital of about SEK 160 million, the fund has had a fantastic journey and had a managed capital of about 3.3 at the beginning of 2019 SEK billion. This is something we are extremely proud of and grateful for.
Join us on our joint journey too!
