About us
SKAGEN is a client-focused fund management company with a long track-record of serving international investors. We offer a range of equity and fixed income strategies which are guided by our active value-oriented investment philosophy.
A contrarian fund company with a unique history
SKAGEN is a Norwegian fund management company with a long and successful history managing equity and fixed income funds. SKAGEN is part of Storebrand Asset Management, but remains an independent investment boutique reporting to its own Board.
Our sole business is fund management, and we do all analysis ourselves. We dare to take unpopular choices, as long as they are in the clients' best interests. We are aligned with our clients – when we do well, clients do well.
Our objective is to provide the best possible risk-adjusted returns, communication and service.
Sustainability in our funds
Investing sustainably is essential in order to achieve the best possible risk-adjusted returns for our clients. Our sustainability strategy is built upon three main pillars:
- We exclude companies that breach international norms or human rights. We also exclude companies that derive more than 5 percent of revenue from gambling, adult entertainment, tobacco and recreational cannabis, more than 25 percent of revenue from coal and more than 20 percent of revenue from oil sands.
- Sustainability is an integrated part of the investment process. We reward companies that provide sustainable solutions.
- Through direct dialogue with companies and voting at general meetings, we can positively influence companies behaviour over the long term.

Simple investment philosophy
Our investment philosophy is simple: to find investments that are mispriced by the market, but whose value is likely to be recognised in future, and which offer great potential for the risk taken.
SKAGEN has a single house philosophy that we have applied consistently since start.
We offer:
- Value focus
- Global mandates
- Active management
- Long-term focus
Our sponsorship support
One of the ways in which we actively promote our values is by supporting long-term social sponsorship work.
Sponsorship work is important to create commitment and a sense of community across countries, languages and cultures. It also strengthens engagement and our values among our employees.
SKAGEN has for many years supported and contributed to socially beneficial projects, both locally and globally.
