How Villand Capital positions Its clients

As we approach the final quarter of 2025, the Nordic private equity landscape shows both resilience and transformation.

Capital raising has become increasingly challenging, as economic uncertainty and cautious investor sentiment continue to shape the broader investment climate. In this environment, investors are more selective — looking for companies with clear strategies, balanced risk profiles and sustainable growth potential.

Key forces at play

🔹 SMEs and the fight for growth capital
SMEs remain the backbone of the Nordic economy, but reaching the right investors is a challenge. Success depends on investor targeting and the ability of skilled advisors to connect companies with private equity funds and institutional investors who can provide both capital and strategic support.

🔹 Sustainability and ESG integration
Environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors are no longer optional. Investors demand transparency, measurable impact and companies that align financial growth with responsible business practices.

🔹 Digitalization and AI
Technology adoption, especially AI and SaaS-based models, is reshaping entire industries. Digital transformation is now a key driver of efficiency and scalability — unlocking new possibilities that can create long-term value.

🔹 Alternative financing models
Alongside traditional equity investments, hybrid financing and structured solutions are gaining traction. Flexibility in capital structures helps align investor goals with the growth ambitions of portfolio companies.
