PP Pension
PP Pension originated in 1882 as the Swedish Publicists' Support Association. It evolved into the media industry's dedicated insurance association and now manages pension and insurance solutions for individuals and companies in that sector. The firm reports a diversified mandate that targets consistent returns through real assets, equities and fixed income. The strategy mixes direct real-estate ownership in central Stockholm with forestry exposure via GreenGold Group AB and commodity trading-advisor mandates. Confirmed holdings include multiple mixed-use and residential properties on Kammakargatan, Kungsholmen and Norrtullsgatan plus a 14.8 percent ownership in GreenGold Group AB. Geographic reach centers on Sweden with additional forestry assets in Finland, the Baltics and the UK. The fund also commits to hedge-fund vehicles managed by Brummer & Partners and SEB. PP Pension employs an internal team that oversees both public-market funds and direct property holdings. It maintains membership in Tjänstepensionsföreningen, EPFIF Nordic Forum, PRI and KvinnoKapital. In March 2026 the firm participated as a speaker at the Institutional Investor Nordic Summit in Stockholm. Kjell Norling will retire as CEO in August 2025 and be succeeded by Charlotta Carlberg. The fund's structure as an industry-specific insurance association creates a closed client base and long-duration liability profile that shapes its real-asset bias. Governance includes board representation on portfolio companies such as GreenGold Group AB through Carl Lindgren.
