Headquartered in London, IK has additional offices in France, Germany, Denmark, the Netherlands and Sweden for its dedicated regional investment teams, consisting of over 90 investment professionals.\nCountry Focused Investment Teams\nAn important element of IK's strategy is to invest in companies that are well-positioned in their incumbent markets and to transform them into European or global market leaders through geographic expansion as well as strategic and operational improvement.
