Sweden’s Fund Selection Agency (FTN) will procure four fund categories in 2027, with assets ranging from SEK 95 billion to as much as SEK 480 billion across equity, fixed income, and mixed funds.
The largest of the four is an actively managed balanced fund category — including equivalent target-date funds — covering between SEK 60 billion and SEK 440 billion. That procurement will run as three parallel processes targeting funds with “cautious, balanced, and aggressive” risk profiles. Ahead of the notices, all relevant funds on FTN’s platform will be assigned to one of the three categories based on risk profile.
Also slated for 2027 are two emerging markets equity procurements — one actively managed, at SEK 15 billion, and one passive at SEK 9 billion — and an actively managed Swedish long-term bond fund category at SEK 11 billion. The emerging markets procurements are scheduled for announcement in the first quarter, followed by the bond fund in the second quarter.
The 2027 plan was presented Monday at a digital information meeting by Executive Director Erik Fransson and Head of Communications Viktor Ström, following FTN’s ongoing procurements currently underway.
Information will be published on the Agency’s website, ftn.se, when updates are available. Preliminary procurement specifications will be published ahead of the notice for each procurement, according to the press release.
