Intro
A conviction-led platform investment combining specialist development expertise with institutional capital and long-term ownership, targeting a €700 million care home portfolio across Sweden.
Governance and alignment are central to the partnership between Sehlhall and Urban Partners, and this investment reflects our strategy of investing behind structural societal trends through scalable real estate platforms. Sweden’s aging population is driving sustained demand for new and modernised care facilities – an opportunity defined by demographic certainty rather than market cycles.
The investment enables the long-term delivery of care homes designed around residents, staff, and care providers. Stable ownership supports consistent quality, sustainable operations, and resilience across the asset’s life.
The transaction builds on Urban Partners’ established position in Nordic care infrastructure, with approximately €1.6 billion of sector exposure, including its dedicated elderly care platform Altura. Together, these platforms demonstrate a consistent approach: building specialist, vertically integrated ownership models that deliver resilient returns alongside measurable societal value.
Sehlhall’s board, chaired by former Swedish Finance Minister Anders Borg, is strengthened through Urban Partners’ involvement, ensuring institutional oversight and long-term strategic continuity.
The Sehlhall partnership demonstrates the unique role of private capital in delivering essential public services. By combining long-term ownership, operational expertise, and institutional capital, Urban Partners helps municipalities expand high-quality social infrastructure through a modern model of public–private collaboration.
