What Coeli does
Coeli is a privately held, partner-owned Swedish investment house founded in 1994 in Stockholm, operating today across four Swedish offices (Stockholm, Gothenburg, Malmö, Uppsala) plus a new Helsinki team established in 2026. The firm manages approximately 60–65 billion SEK in assets across public and private markets through its core operating subsidiaries: Coeli Asset Management AB (19 actively managed funds spanning equities, fixed income, hedge, multi-asset, private equity and real estate, run by partner-owned investment teams), Coeli Wealth Management AB (discretionary and advisory wealth management with a 5M SEK minimum, including family office services, tax and legal specialists, and generational planning), Coeli Investment AB (private equity and real estate investing, often as active owner alongside client capital), and Coeli Finance AB (a credit arm offering property loans, securities-backed credit and operating credits in the 10–200M SEK range, plus a Swedish retail savings account product with state deposit guarantee). Revenue is generated through a diversified mix of recurring fund management fees, transaction-based performance fees on private market funds, advisory fees, and net interest income from lending and savings float. Distribution is multi-channel and tailored to segment: face-to-face wealth advisory at four Swedish regional hubs, a dedicated institutional sales team, a self-service online portal (BankID-enabled) for retail savings and direct-to-consumer Access funds lowering the Nordic private markets minimum to 10,000 SEK, and curated investor networks (Coeli Investment Partners, Coeli Stella). The firm's core differentiator is its Coelimodellen — combining active fundamental management with access to unlisted PE and real estate — supported by network effects from a 4,000+ entrepreneur/investor ecosystem and consistent Euromoney Private Banking Award recognition (Best Wealth Manager, Best Family Office, and Best Nordic Alternative Investments Manager in 2025 and 2026).
