Modernising welfare with smart financing
We believe that the pace of change today is too slow, and through smart financing, we aim to help modernise the welfare system. Utfallsfonden was established in 2023 and will operate for ten years, allowing us to take a long-term approach to our investments.
The fund supports entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs (those within organisations looking to develop something new) across the entire welfare sector. This might involve investing in a newly established company aimed at helping troubled youth remain at home and receive support, rather than being placed in residential institutions. It could also involve project financing for a municipality that needs investment to transform its elderly care services into a more preventive and outreach-based model. What all our investments have in common is that they are designed to lead to smarter and better welfare services.
The year in brief
During this, our first year of operation, we have already invested SEK 50 million and plan to invest at least another SEK 20 million by the end of the year. Our investments focus on the challenges currently facing the public sector and society.
High on the list is the demographic challenge of an ageing population and how we can care for a growing number of elderly people. Many municipalities are also grappling with issues concerning children and young people who require more preventive interventions from society. These may include crime prevention measures, support to succeed in school, or better diagnosis and treatment of mental health issues. We also see a need to accelerate the digitalisation of healthcare, an area requiring carefully considered investments, where we can play an enabling role.
