SOS Childrens Villages
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.
Responsible investing
We believe that investing responsibly is essential to achieve the best possible risk-adjusted returns for our unit holders over time.
Sustainability factors are often a signal of management quality, particularly over the long term. Our portfolio managers thus actively integrate environmental, social and corporate governance issues into the investment process.

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.
