About us
River Oak Capital is a private investment company that was founded in February 2017 in Uppsala, Sweden by Daniel Glaser and ten co-founding shareholders.
It was founded on the principles of fundamental business analysis, a long term mindset and keeping things simple.
Over the years, more people have joined us, and today we are more than 70 shareholders from eight different countries strong – a small but powerful group of realistic optimists.
We primarily invest in public companies based in the Nordics, but also in other parts of the world. We also invest in private Nordic companies if there is a good match and we feel that we can provide good support to the founders.
