    Swedfund considers investments in developing countries in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and Eastern Europe, excluding sectors on their exclusion list. They invest in proven technologies and prefer companies with strong financials and experience in their sector. Investments are typically equity or debt focused on equity, ranging from $3-15 million per investment. Swedfund takes a minority stake of 25-35% and equal or lower risk than co-investors. They seek commercial returns and do not provide grants. Board representation is included for equity investments, with a 5-10 year investment horizon.
