Altor Equity Partners is a private equity firm focused on leveraged buyout and growth capital investments in Sweden, Denmark, Finland and Norway.

The firm, which is based in Stockholm, Sweden, was founded in 2003 by a team led by Harald Mix, formerly a partner at Industri Kapital, another Nordic-focused private equity firm.

The firm has raised approximately €6.2 billion since inception across three funds. [1] The firm completed fundraising for its first investment vehicle, the Altor 2003 Fund in May 2003 with €650 million of investor commitments. Altor Fund II was closed in March 2006 €1.2 billion of capital[2] and Altor Fund III closed in August 2008 with €2.0 billion of commitments.[3][4]
