AMF Hires Former Alcur Portfolio Manager

AMF has strengthened its investment organization with the addition of Erik Eikeland, a former portfolio manager at hedge fund boutique Alcur Fonder. Eikeland brings 14 years of experience across equity markets, portfolio management, and equity research. 

“Today we had the pleasure of welcoming Erik Eikeland, portfolio manager, to our team,” AMF announced in a post on LinkedIn. “We are extremely pleased with this addition,” added Katarina Romberg, Head of Asset Management and CEO of AMF Fonder, in comments to Dagens Industri.

“Today we had the pleasure of welcoming Erik Eikeland, portfolio manager, to our team. We are extremely pleased with this addition.”

Eikeland spent roughly four years at Alcur Fonder, where he was part of the investment team until the end of 2024. He joined Alcur in October 2020 after several years at Investor AB, the Wallenberg family’s investment vehicle, where he managed a long/short equity mandate within the trading unit. Prior to that, he spent around three years as an equity research analyst at Second Swedish National Pension Fund (AP2). He began his career at UBS, focusing on the engineering sector. Alongside his portfolio management responsibilities, Eikeland has served on the board of Catella Group.

Eikeland left Alcur Fonder at the end of 2024, prior to the arrival of Per Flöstrand, who joined the firm in January 2025 and now serves as Chief Investment Officer. Earlier this year, Flöstrand succeeded co-founder and long-time CIO Johan Klevby in the role as part of a broader reallocation of responsibilities. Klevby remains actively involved in portfolio management while increasingly focusing on the firm’s investment infrastructure and platform development.
