Aged Care Fund IV
In the Nordic countries, the elderly population is growing rapidly. The need for new investments in aged care facilities is already substantial and is expected to increase further in the coming decades.
Launched in 2020, Aged Care Fund IV (ACIV) is the fourth healthcare-focused fund managed by Northern Horizon. The fund's investment strategy addresses the structural undersupply of care infrastructure by providing modern care homes and similar residential care assets across Sweden, Finland, Norway, and Denmark.
ACIV is targeted exclusively at institutional and professional investors.
ACIV reached final close in 2022 and successfully completed its investment phase in 2025.
Today, the fund's portfolio comprises 47 modern assets in attractive locations in Finland, Sweden, and Denmark. The majority of the properties are care homes for the elderly or individuals with mental disabilities, representing more than 1,900 care beds in total. The portfolio also includes two senior housing projects and three kindergartens.
