“I realize that some people may not want to invest in that kind of company, but I think there is a very big question of contractual right and how you look upon that as an important factor of doing business.”

“I look upon it this way that It happens at the base of it. It's a contractual right. These companies that have it have made an agreement at one point in time to have that. It has very often been situations where... Companies have been developed by entrepreneurs who needed to go for more capital. And doing so found that their presence and their possibility to influence was very, very important. And the investors at the time thought also that was a very important idea. I think that in our part of the world We have a very, very transparent system around this. You are free as an investor to buy the type of share that you want to buy. You can decide if you want to buy into that company or not.”

“Well, it's interesting question because they seem to be doing quite well as well. And so there may be not any Colombo egg here. But I think that... I think what speaks to our model, which is very good, is that Also CEO needs somebody to talk to.

“I believe that good chairs usually engage themselves with the companies quite a bit. Even in setting, I mean, this, of course, depends in which jurisdiction you're working, but I think... Because in many jurisdictions, many capital markets, chairs are much, much closer. They're almost half executives. But in the Swedish or the Nordic way of doing it, then of course we have non-executive chairs. But those chairs who stay very close to the companies, to the managements, I think tend to do very well.”

You can see, for example, Burykon, who's now running Ericsson, did a very good job at the investor before that. And if you look historically into our group, the people who have been very helpful in helping the family over the years, they all did a multitude of things.”

“technologies. No, but I mean, think about some of these multinational corporations. They can actually, they don't have to do all staff meetings by going to certain countries. They can do three old staff meetings over Zoom without moving, and then they cover all the time zones. So it helps you to run the companies in a very different way. You can use the corporate version of Facebook or whatever to communicate between different groups that work with different projects in multinational corporations. So yes, you can apply these things in a very, very different way.”

“Sure, I mean the engagement, the energy, the knowledge, Judgment Strength to carry on also in difficult times and lead people through difficult times, but also lead people in times of great expansion. That's why it's so important to have people in leadership positions who is also there at that particular time for a certain company. Because sometimes you have to companies need to go through a very difficult period. That's maybe a very different leader from somebody, from a company who are in a strong, strong expansion phase.”

“Number one, of course, opportunities that you may be introduced to. I think that the network and to understand what is actually happening around the world is for us since we are close to businesses with global businesses. It is a very essential part that you actually have people that you can talk to in different parts of the world ask for advice, listening to what is actually their viewpoints. This is very hard to do over a Zoom call. You have to spend time getting to know these people, getting to know them in times when you maybe not need their help because one day you may need their help with something. And then it's very good to have that network.”

“I think one of the key aspects is to be open, open to the discussion, open to that you try to bring in competence around certain questions that can actually be helpful for the development of the country. And having that openness towards listening to each other and taking some advice, hopefully, into the process of decision making, for example, in politics.”

“Questions like that. So we engage in different projects and our members can and will give us their free time to help out in doing that. And then we have the possibility to have discussion with government and give our input into the political debate. So it really, we often think about in Sweden we talk very much about triple helix, namely the relationship between government, business and academia. And you can say that this organization, EBA, is really in the middle of this discussion.”

“I take that You could say we call it Eva, this IBA. This organization has, it's the oldest engineering academy in the world. They have a very, very strong membership group with immense knowledge in it. Everything that is being done in that group is done on a pro bono basis. By doing this, this organization has the possibility to help out in Sweden society when difficult Discussions are there about the future. I mean, for example, how should we think about our energy situation? What other policy measures do we need to do to make sure that Sweden stays competitive?”

“You can being in a private setting, you can also be more nimble in your relationship to the companies and stay much, much closer to them than if you are a minority owner in a big business.”

“I think that We have both learned from it. They have been operating quite independently, but we always have had in our communication from both sides, we have always talked to the relationship as a very good one. I think that what we have learned from them is how do you operate in a private setting? And what are the important things there? I think they have taken a lot of the values that the way we have been owners in the public companies with them as well and stand for the long-termness and trying to really push innovation, et cetera, et cetera, in them. So I think, yes, it has been good to be side by side from my perspective. It's been really good. I think that the question of learning is so important because you really have to see, and what has taught us one thing with EQT, is that you can do things in a different way.”

“It came about that we got through contacts in the United States. There was a group called the AEA Investors. We got to know them and understood that they had a big contact network with CEOs of large US corporations who at the time when they were leaving their companies still had a lot of mileage left in them. And they used them to develop the companies in the AA portfolio from industrial point of view. And that became also one of the principles when we started EQT, when Connie Johnson and Klaus Dahlbeck and the teams started EQT. And that has also followed their legacy over time. I think that they've done a fantastic job when they listed EQT as a company. They've also been able to, with shares, to get into new businesses”

“Think I think that if you look at, for example, the privately owned business of investor, which is called Patricia Industries, we have been investing quite a lot there in the last 10 years. So yes, we are participating in that. So in other holding companies, if you look at EQT, they have been extremely on their toes and have created a very big business in the past 10 years. So I think that we have been quite active. Perhaps we're known to deal with some of the very large public corporations.”

“Cyber, regulatory, political climate. There are so many different risks that are now coming into the equation. So we are living in a quite complex world from that point of view. We spend a lot of time in the family and the people that we work with to try to understand to our best ability, I should say, what is actually about to happen and how it could impact what we do.”

“Mean, it's hard to say that we are living in the most difficult time. That you should not do. But I think one can at least conclude that we're living in extremely complex times. And it's not only geopolitics, it's also the advancement of science, it's climate change, it's so many things that we have to think about in our generation. And I guess we're all keen to give something to our kids that is in a good shape. So that impacts our thinking a lot about the surrounding world. When I take from a bank perspective It's always been around the credit risk and the market risk and the liquidity risk and so on that on the balance sheet things. But today, if you're a banker, there are so many additional risks that you have to consider.”

“We're trying to focus on excellence, and we're really pushing that. The research that is being performed is open research. It's for everybody. The Swedish system is such that the researcher owns the IP. So it really is an open question. And of course, this comes along very much a line in line with what I tried to describe earlier, namely If you think about yourself that you have to innovate and future-proof the whole time. Also being in a country where research and education is a very important part that works very well in our book, in how to think about adapting with the times and looking around the corner of what is about to come.”

“I hesitate to mention names because I think that all of them have to be innovative. If you are going to be successful in the pharma world, you have to be extremely innovative, such as AstraSeneca. If you're going to compete in the telecom world, you have to be extremely innovative to stay ahead. But also when you look at the traditional engineering companies such as Attasco, they have a huge pressure on themselves to innovate and innovate and innovate. So I think most of the companies in our portfolio have that pressure on them. And that is something that they are keenly aware of and something that they are actually really trying to put more and more emphasis on over the years.”

“Which means that when you go from one generation to another, you're not quarreling about any money because the money will never belong to you. So you actually work for the good of the foundations and for the companies based on your interest. And it's not there to fight or have a big discussion about how to find the money here. I think that has been extremely important for our family because those of us who decided to work with the family, we have done that because we have a keen interest in doing so. We've been lucky that throughout the generations there have been very qualified people in the family who has been able to be there and develop the business”

“You never know, of course, what would have happened then. But in the case of the largest foundation, K Wallenbury, my great uncle, and his wife Alice, an Norwegian opera singer, they had no children. So for them it was a natural thing to go for a foundation. Then came the tax question, as you said, which we now, I think we're close to 50. Important things here is that As we all know, the Nordic way of doing foundations nobody owns the foundation.”

“Some of them said that I'm a happy family member and that's fine. And I think that is a very good way of doing it. There is always a balance with hoping that they will get the interest, understand the necessary things you need to do as an owner. But I think we're also very mindful that this is something if you work with these things you will have to spend a lot of time. There's a lot of demands on your time and so on, so you really have to like what you're doing. So gradually I think they will take more responsibility. And that's something we're in very close dialogue with them about coming on.”

“They're about 30 of them in the next generation. And we have for a number of years, more than 10 years, worked with them in different ways, introducing them slowly to each other and to the businesses and to the foundations and what the family wants to do. Some of them have said that they're interested to work in the business. Some of them said that they would like to work with the foundations.”

“Yes, you're touching something that is very, very important because your responsibility, of course, have to be adapted to what can be done in a good way. So the question is relevant. I would say that we in the family carry and have carried a lot of responsibility. But when you talk about If there is a culture or a value base in our family, coming back to that question, I would say that if you look through the years that the family has been active, one of the key questions that I can at least detect is that the family has worked with fantastic people. And it is a team play. It's a team sport one person, a couple of persons can't do this yourself. You have to rely on people that share your value base. And they have to take their responsibility along your own responsibility. And that in itself is a responsibility to find these people.”

“Absolutely Expanded their technologies, expanded some acquisitions as well, of course, over time, being very international. Most of these companies have less than 10% of their business in Sweden. And that means that you really have to understand the international markets. You have to rely on free trade, which is perhaps not an obvious question today, and that you can As I said earlier, stay competitive in the sense that you can adapt to the different markets and their needs over time.”

“I don't know if it's a Swedish trait, but I think that as a country, Sweden has always been very dependent on trade. If you want to do trade, you have to be competitive. If you want to be competitive as a small country, you have to innovate. So, this is something that I think Swedish companies have been forced to understand and to deal with over a long time. We are small countries. That means that you cannot assume that you'll get all the attention that maybe you would like. So you really have to build the trust. You have to be cost effective, and you have to innovate.”

“We hope there is a set of values that is very important to us as a family. You just mentioned the long-term aspect to stay with the companies, try to be supportive of them for a long time, see a change in these companies to be really competitive. We talk a lot about the future-proofing of companies, which basically means Today we're looking very much at the people question. We think that is extremely important. We look at companies and their ability to innovate. and not the least also with sustainability. And last but not least, I would say the demands on all companies to understand their data and AI and cyber strategies.”
