Compliance

AIFM Capital is an authorized AIF-Manager and so we are legally obligated to disclose certain important information and documents. Below is a list of such information that are relevant to both fund investors as well as other stakeholders. Some of the documents are only available in Swedish.

Publicly disclosed documents:

Exercise of voting right

An AIFM shall develop adequate and effective strategies for determining when and how any voting rights held in the AIF portfolios it manages are to be exercised, to the exclusive benefit of the AIF concerned and its investors. To comply with this, AIFM has adopted and implemented internal guidelines for exercising voting rights. According to our ownership policy, we shall always vote with the common interest of the investors of the fund. This shall be done if AIFM, through its funds, are among the largest shareholders of the issuer, or if it is considered to be beneficial for the funds return. Voting can only be exercised in accordance with the funds investment policy and/or strategy. In most circumstances, AIFM does not exercise active ownership except for funds investing in non-listed companies. However, AIFM continously monitors the development of all funds’ portfolio companies. When voting rights are exercised, AIFM shall always  act in accordance with relevant laws and regulations and otherwise according to good practice in the stock market.

The board of directors has appointed Dan Hjörnered as responsible for the anti-money laundering function and he will act as the officer for controlling and reporting obligations.

Return

Historical returns are no guarantee of future returns. The money that is invested in the fund can both decrease and increase in value and it is not certain that the investor will get back all the deposited capital. A fund with risk classes 6-7 can both shrink and increase significantly in value, due to its composition and the management methods used. We recommend that you take note of the fund’s fact sheet, information brochure and fund regulations before investing.
