Nordic Focus

We focus on finding the hidden gems among small and medium-sized listed companies in the Nordic market. Every year we meet over 200 exciting companies and have a close dialogue with key people and stakeholders. The Nordic stock markets are well-developed and give us the conditions to protect the portfolio even in a volatile market.

Fundamental analysis

We invest long-term and in companies we understand and can evaluate. Through deep analysis of economic and financial factors and meetings with company management, we create an idea of ​​whether the share is under- or overvalued and the companies' potential future development in the market. We have used our methodology for fundamental analysis successfully for many years and Adrigo Small & Midcap L/S has also received several awards.

Absolute returns

Adrigo aims to generate 8-16% annually, which means that over time we will create a positive return regardless of market conditions. The fund has a unique mix of long holdings combined with a carefully selected portfolio of short-term positions. This means that you, as an investor, get a stable fund when it comes to the relationship between risk and return.

KNOWLEDGE

At Adrigo we have over 40 years of experience in the financial market, and we focus on what we do best - small and medium-sized companies in the Nordic market. We are active stock-pickers who invest in companies and industries we know well, in a market that is our own.

PASSION
