Investment philosophy

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.
