Governance
This section shows how Slättö works with governance to support effective operations, manage risk and maintain investor confidence, and how this is embedded in both oversight and day-to-day activities.
Why it matters
Effective governance is central to Slättö’s business model. It supports sustainable business operations, investor confidence and ultimately, long-term value creation.
Targets and metrics
Governance targets are primarily qualitative and focus on compliance with applicable regulatory requirements, adherence to industry standards, and effective implementation of the internal governance framework.
What we do
Governance starts with clear accountability and active oversight from the Board of Directors and senior management. Slättö operates under a framework of internal policies and guidelines covering, for example, investment processes, conflict of interest, anti-money laundering and data protection, and these are reviewed and updated regularly. Governance processes are integrated with Slättö’s risk management framework and ongoing internal control activities.
2025 performance
During 2025, Slättö achieved its governance targets through full regulatory compliance with no breaches reported and strengthened risk management in the internal governance framework. No material governance-related incidents or Code of Conduct violations were identified.

Governance in practice
A significant proportion of Slättö’s partners and employees are invested in Slättö-managed vehicles, supporting alignment of interests with investors. Investor representation is also reflected through the funds’ Advisory Boards.
Governance is embedded in both oversight and day-to-day operations:
- Board of Directors include independent directors
- Legal and Compliance function monitoring through transaction- and fund-level reviews
- Regular reporting to senior management and the Board
- Independent third-party assessments to ensure adherence and identify improvements
Together, these governance practices support disciplined investment decisions, reduce downside risk and strengthen access to capital – forming a foundation for long-term value creation.
