The Oresund Group consists of the parent company, Investment AB Oresund, which is a pure investment company active in asset management, and the subsidiary, Ven Capital AB. Ven Capital is engaged in securities trading as a complement to the parent company's investment management activities.
Investment AB Oresund traces its origins to Sjoforsakringsaktiebolaget Oresund, a marine insurance company founded in 1890 with a share capital of SEK 300,000. In 1956 the company was restructured with AB Sjo-Oresund becoming the parent company of a group consisting of three marine insurance companies, Oresund, Agir and Stockholms Sjö. In 1961, the shares in these three companies were sold to Skandia in return for a portfolio of listed shares and cash. AB Sjo-Oresund changed its name to Investment AB Oresund.
