Functions as an open-end investment fund

Norvestia-IM is an active, value-oriented manager which seeks long-term, risk-adjusted returns. The firm's guiding investment principle is to diversify investments to reduce overall risk, as well as to pursue steady asset growth. The firm follows several indexes closely, but does not compare their return with them. Their investment philosophy seeks to avoid large drops in share prices, aiming to achieve better-than-index returns in the long run. This often means that they sell shares when others buy and buy when other investors sell. Norvestia-IM follows company-specific earnings prospects as well as various economic indicators to detect changes in market trends and makes adjustments to their investment portfolio accordingly. They also seek long-term industrial investments, aiming to achieve above-average market returns by developing the target company. Changes in exchange rates, particularly between the Swedish krona and the euro, impact the firm's performance, since the majority of their hedge fund investments are krona-denominated.
