Our European footprint
London: serves as our company’s headquarters and historic financial hub.
Stockholm: serves as our strategic European foothold, servicing Continental European investors in compliance with EEA regulations/passporting rules.
In 2022 Alvine Capital Management Limited decided to establish a company within the European Union and the chosen domicile was Sweden.
We concluded that Stockholm was an ideal choice, reflecting the Nordic origins of our business and the extensive expertise and long-standing experience in alternative investments and Private Markets among institutional investors in the Nordic region. This dedication has allowed us to offer European investors, as well as European, US and non-European fund managers, the highest level of service within the current regulatory environment.
European Expansion - Authorisation
The authorisation by Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority (Finansinspektionen) in February 2023, and the new local office in Stockholm, allows Alvine Capital to both market in Sweden and to all countries in the European Economic Area (EEA) via passporting of authorisation.
In addition to the European Union, the authorisation for cross border activities also includes Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway. The regulatory change in Europe has further institutionalised the business of fund marketing for fund managers and investors
