About
Nordlink Capital is an independent advisory firm specialising in Nordic institutional capital introductions. Established in 2014 and headquartered in London, the firm advises alternative fund managers, sponsors and direct transaction principals on raising capital from institutional investors across Sweden, Finland, Norway, Denmark and Iceland.
Our institutional network of 160+ allocator relationships spans state pension funds, insurance companies, banks, asset managers and fund of funds, corporate pension plans, family offices and foundations.
Services
Nordlink Capital advises alternative fund managers on raising institutional capital in the Nordic region. The firm has worked across private equity, private credit, hedge, real assets and real estate strategies, supporting both first-time institutional funds and established platforms.
Our team provides Nordic institutional capital introductions for sponsors seeking co-investors on specific transactions. Mandates run alongside, or independently of, primary fund relationships.
For sponsors raising capital outside the fund wrapper: minority and majority investments, take-privates, carve-outs, and independent sponsor transactions. Nordlink Capital sources qualified institutional and family-office capital for deal-by-deal opportunities.
Clients
Nordlink Capital advises a defined set of client types, each with a distinct positioning need and a distinct allocator audience inside the Nordic market. Mandates are tailored to strategy, vintage and structure.
