Billinger Förvaltnings AB is a privately held company founded in 1995 by Kenneth Billinger. The company is based in Karlstad, Sweden.
Historically BFAB mainly operated as a holding company with interests in industrial businesses and commercial real estate. The company started investing in listed equities in 2015 and is fully focused on financial investments since 2019, when Christian Billinger took over control of the company.
Our ambition is to generate attractive long-term total returns in real terms. We aim to do this without employing any financial leverage.
Our structure, which provides us with permanent capital to invest for an infinite time horizon, is well aligned with the investment philosophy. Simplicity and focus are cornerstones of our set-up and this also enables us to operate with a low expense ratio.
