Stockholm (HedgeNordic) – Swedish occupational pension fund AMF is set for a leadership change, appointing its head of asset management, Tomas Flodén, as the new chief executive officer effective next year. To fill the vacated position, Katarina Romberg, currently Head of Alternatives at AMF, has been named head of asset management at AMF and CEO of the group’s investment funds arm, AMF Fonder. This subsidiary oversees the group’s asset management activities, along with managing a series of funds available for the premium pension system and direct fund saving.

Tomas Flodén has been with AMF since 2009, initially serving as Chief of Staff and Risk for over eight years. He has been AMF’s head of asset management or chief investment officer since early 2019. In 2021, he also took on the role of CEO of AMF Fonder, when AMF merged its life and funds operations into a single asset management entity and consolidated all asset management under the funds arm.

“We on the Board are very pleased that Tomas Flodén has agreed to take on the responsibility as CEO of AMF.”

Lars Wedenborn, Chairman of the Board of AMF.

“We on the Board are very pleased that Tomas Flodén has agreed to take on the responsibility as CEO of AMF,” says Lars Wedenborn, Chairman of the Board of AMF. “He has long and solid experience from AMF, the pension industry and the financial sector,” Wedenborn adds. “AMF is a very well-run and strong company and with Tomas as the new CEO, we ensure that AMF gets both the power required to continue to develop and be at the forefront, but also the continuity needed to continue to deliver good pensions to Sweden’s workers.”

“I am proud and happy to have been entrusted with not only being able to remain at AMF from next year, but to do so in the role of head of asset management and CEO of AMF Fonder.”

Katarina Romberg, AFM’s Head of Alternatives.

AFM’s board has appointed Katarina Romberg as the new CEO of AFM Fonder and head of AFM’s asset management effective January 1, 2025, succeeding Tomas Flodén in these roles. Romberg has served as Head of Alternatives for AMF for the past seven years and worked in infrastructure investments for about a year. “For the past eight years, I have had the privilege of having the world’s most enjoyable job where I, together with my fantastic colleagues, have been able to contribute to AMF’s great returns through our alternative investments,” says Romberg in a LinkedIn post. “I am proud and happy to have been entrusted with not only being able to remain at AMF from next year, but to do so in the role of head of asset management and CEO of AMF Fonder.”
