Swedish fund review: active Globalfonder funds suspected of index-hugging

Dagens Industri's review of Sweden's popular Globalfonder funds suggests several large, actively managed funds charging higher fees are effectively tracking their benchmark index rather than delivering genuine active management. The claim is based on the newspaper's analysis, not an official regulator finding, so the extent of index-hugging remains uncertain. This matters because it raises questions about fee fairness and could prompt investor outflows or regulatory scrutiny in Sweden's retail fund market.
