Nordic Investment Conference 2026: The Forces Defining the Nordic's Future

We are delighted to present the programme for the 2026 CFA Nordic Investor Conference: The Forces Defining the Nordic's Future. The conference brings together an exceptional line-up of leaders whose work directly shapes the forces most relevant to investors today, from European security and geopolitics, to interpreting global market signals, revealing hidden risks, and helping us find ways to make better decisions.

Speakers include European security expert Joakim Paasikivi, European Parliament member Alice Teodorescu Måwe, and critical raw materials specialist Erik Jonsson. Market perspectives come from former AP1 CEO Kristin Magnusson Bernard, seasoned investment strategist Jamil Baz, and sustainable investing pioneer Ian Simm.

Throughout the day, we will also hear from perspective‑shifting leaders including fact‑based storyteller whose insights have changed how millions understand the world, Ola Rosling; a deeply thoughtful investor whose candid take on leading people and portfolios offers rare practical wisdom, Scott Radke; and London Business School finance professor and TED speaker Alex Edmans.

As a flagship gathering and premier networking event for the Nordic investment community, the sixth edition of the Nordic Investment Conference is hosted by CFA Society Sweden in close collaboration with CFA Society Denmark / The Danish Finance Society, CFA Society Finland, and CFA Society Norway.

Designed for CFA members but open to non-members, this is a conference not to be missed.
