Swedfund publishes interim report for the third quarter of 2026
Introduction
Swedfund’s latest investments aim to increase access to capital for small and medium-sized enterprises in Africa and support the climate transition in both Africa and India. Meanwhile, the Project Accelerator initiated five new projects to develop sustainable infrastructure. Today, Swedfund publishes its Swedish interim report for the third quarter of 2026.
During the quarter, Swedfund signed four new investment agreements totalling SEK 1,166 million. The investments in Zanaco in Zambia and NSIA Banque Bénin aim to enable more micro, small and medium-sized enterprises to invest, grow and create jobs. Within energy and climate, Swedfund invested in businesses that reduce emissions and strengthen resilience to climate change in India and Africa.
At the end of the quarter, the portfolio’s total value stood at SEK 16.5 billion. Of the portfolio, 36 per cent is invested in the world’s least developed countries, where capital needs are substantial.
The report describes the Project Accelerator’s five new projects in circular solutions, sustainable energy and transport. It also covers the first decisions to support partnerships between Swedish and Ukrainian companies through the Swedfund Business Accelerator.
