AktieTorget – which means ”Share square” in Swedish – is a unique Swedish setup enabling entrepreneurial companies to get access to the capital market. In this case, the capital market means the general public and a number of institutions that take an interest in promising, young companies.
AktieTorget is a stock exchange. The idea is that investors, particularly small investors whose investments in entrepreneurial companies will not give them power, are not willing to invest unless the company promises immediate listing after an IPO. Listing provides a modicum of security to the small investor. The promise of listing opens purses that otherwise would have been closed.
There is no reason why this opportunity should not be open to American companies as well. There are no legal limitations for Swedish investors to finance promising American small and medium size companies.
