Investment ManagementUnited Kingdom51-200 Employees

Founded in 2005 by Nicolai Tangen, AKO Capital is one of Europe’s leading investment partnerships, managing over $20bn across European and Global equity funds. We believe that the best way to create strong risk-adjusted return over time is to own the best assets for the long term. Through a rigorous and proprietary bottom-up investment process we aim to build a portfolio that combines excellent economic characteristics and great management. We have a long-term investor base that includes many of the world’s leading endowments, charitable foundations, institutional investors and sovereign wealth funds. 

• Long-term thinking. We believe that long-term thinking is critical to our success and also a key differentiator in the way we approach investing. When investing in great companies the best outcome is achieved by having a long investment horizon. 

• Transparency. We believe any long-term relationship must be based on full transparency. We are very open to our investors about what we do, why we do it and what the outcome is – good or bad. 

• Commitment to people. We believe that a commitment to people is paramount to success as the strength of our results in the long run will reflect the strength of our team. 

• Continuous improvement. We believe continuous improvement is necessary for our organization to continue to deliver strong results. A long-term focus should never come in the way of a short-term urgency to improve in everything we do. 

• Responsible investing. We believe that only by consistently dealing fairly with all their stakeholders can our companies safeguard the high returns we seek in our investments. As a result, we aim to incorporate environmental, social and corporate governance in our investment approach in order to safeguard the interests of our clients.
