Founded in 2018 Nordic Secondary Fund is the first and only fund in the Nordics to exclusively invest in secondaries. The Private Equity “Secondaries” asset class is an attractive alternative investment with high yields and is a source of diversification for investors to mitigate overall risk.

As a result of an acceleration in the number of potential business opportunities, especially tech-based, along with better access to venture capital and fast growth, the number of valuable early stage growth companies have increased significantly. Many founders, seed and early investors own stakes of considerable value in these companies. These stakes – however – cannot be monetized, as the market for minority stakes in non-listed early growth Nordic companies is in reality non-existing.

Nordic Secondary Fund acquires secondary stakes in companies that have completed a Series-A capital raising from venture capital or corporate venture. We invest in companies that have shown to have a proven business model: a documented market for the companies’ products or services as well as a scalable business model. We aim to invest at a substantial discount to the latest funding round. Due to our fund structure, it is essential that we can see a 2x-5x upside and an exit within 5 years.
