On May 21, 2024, Evolver Equity was delighted to receive the Platinum Award for Private Equity Buyout Funds when Scandinavian Financial Research announced the results of its SFR Alternative Managers 2024 performance study.
Evolver Equity Awarded National Prize for Alternative Managers 2024
The award ceremony attracted around 70 attendants, General and Limited Partners as well as other investment professionals, to Kansallissali in Helsinki.
A wide group of both private investment firms and institutional investors with a combined AuM of more than 280 billion euros were selected to participate in the study and the interviews were conducted during winter and spring of 2024. The most important criteria for both the investors and the managers were mapped out in collaboration with Tesi (Finnish Industry Investment Ltd), based on which the investors evaluated the managers they use. The interview research approach enabled even more thorough comparison with competitors on the quality of service than simply investors’ satisfaction with returns.
“We are encouraged and humbled by this recognition of our work. The award serves as a testament to the hard work and dedication of our entire team through the years and we are looking forward to continuing working on creating value for both our portfolio companies and limited partners. The timing of the acknowledgement is also great since we are in the middle of raising our second Nordic small-cap fund”, says Lasse Kittelsen, Evolver Equity’s Managing Partner.
