Sustainability
The basis for long-term value creation
AP3’s sustainability work is based on the Swedish state’s values, where democracy, the equal value of all people, the freedom, dignity and sustainable development of the individual are central parts.
Sustainability at AP3
Though a global investor, AP3 is based in Sweden and has a natural focus on domestic investments. These holdings have performed well over time by international standards and have also enabled the Fund to share a Swedish perspective with global investors. Swedish expertise is an increasing asset in a world where sustainability is steadily gaining prominence.
The long-term nature of AP3s mission enables the Fund to invest in unlisted companies where value creation takes place over long periods of time. Returns can be high compared to many market-listed investments because these types of investment are not available to all types of investors and come with a liquidity premium.
