SWEDEN WEBSITE : EQTGROUP.COM
EQT is a Swedish-listed alternative investment firm with approximately €291 billion in total assets under management, allocated across private capital, infrastructure, real estate, growth and venture strategies. Established in 1994 within the Wallenberg sphere, it conducts origination through dedicated sector teams rather than country coverage, and generally seeks control or co-control positions in companies where value can be enhanced through buy-and-build programmes and operational improvement. Capital is deployed through funds materially larger than the small and mid-cap segment. EQT X closed at €22 billion and EQT Infrastructure VI at €21.5 billion. Investment activity concentrates on health providers, life sciences, utilities (regulated infrastructure), industrial services, power generation, principally in UK, Germany and Spain. Transactions recently completed include Cleanaway, Qiagen and VDK Groep.
