Stena – growing in strength on the global finance markets

Business at the Stena AB Group is by its very nature capital-intensive. The Finance business area is responsible for capital procurement in both the short and long term. This includes the Group’s liquidity management, risk handling, responsibility for financial monitoring and financial reporting.

The Finance business area lies within the Stena AB Group and consists of Stena Finance and Stena Long Term Equity. The business is run from offices in Göteborg, Zug, Amsterdam, London and Luxemburg. 

Advisor to the operating units

The Finance business area acts as an advisor to the operating units in connection with identifying, analysing and carrying out new deals. The business area has the competence needed to carry out projects from start to finish. A majority of assignments are connected with developing long-term financial solutions. Among major projects in recent years, several have been connected with various newbuilds for shipping and offshore. 

Own staff for global monitoring

To be able to support the operating units and contribute to new business requires access to good decision data. Staff within the Finance business area perform comprehensive global monitoring. Assignments include taking a holistic view when analysing both the macroeconomic position and individual companies and shares. The aim is to identify key events at an early stage and then pinpoint attractive markets and shares to invest in. 

Comprehensive trading in securities 

A large part of the Group’s profit is used for investing in listed and unlisted companies, currency, interest rates and other financial instruments. Investment activities have, over time, become an all-important part of the combined business activities.
