Alfred Berg

Alfred Berg is a Scandinavian asset manager focusing on portfolio management and financial analysis, with offices in both Oslo and Stockholm. The Alfred Berg division of BNP Paribas Asset Management operates independently.

Alfred Berg, a prominent Nordic investment bank, was established in Sweden in 1863 by Carl Gustav Hierzéel, the same year the Stockholm Stock Exchange debuted. Alfred Berg, a banker, acquired the business in 1901 and gave his name to the corporation. The Kahm family held the Alfred Berg for most of the twentieth century. Midway through the 1980s, however, Alfred Berg sold the company to Volvo and began expanding internationally by purchasing the majority of shares in the Norwegian firm Gunnar Bhn & Co. This marked the beginning of our work to create a Nordic firm grounded in regional knowledge.

Shortly after entering the Norwegian market, Alfred Berg also entered the Danish one, acquiring Brdr—Trier, Denmark's oldest brokerage firm, around 1877. Alfred Berg continued to grow during the 1990s, opening new offices in major cities like Helsinki, London, New York, and Moscow. ABN AMRO purchased Alfred Berg in 1995.
