Ranking of Financial Journalists
Introduction
    This survey is the 25th consecutive annual ranking of financial analysts and journalists working in the financial sector in Sweden.
    The survey respondents include Sweden’s main institutional investors and listed companies. The number of respondents in each
    category as well as the response rate are shown in the description of each survey. Ranking professionals can be a very sensitive mat-
    ter. The presentation of the methodology used in the survey is therefore as open and transparent as possible. The trust of all the
    parties involved is a cornerstone of the survey, and the methods it uses must be credible.
    This ranking has become a benchmark for the financial industry in Sweden. Ranking financial analysts is nothing new, and most
    developed financial markets measure analysts’ performances. However, it is unusual to rank journalists and the media. We have
    chosen to do so from the perspective of financial analysts, investors and senior corporate executives. The survey also includes a
    rating of the presentations listed given to the financial community. The respondents rate the companies in terms of reach, frequen-
    cy and continuity. The rating does not concern quality of the actual presentation.

Financial Hearings
    The survey covers sixty swedish institutions.

    Carnegie took the top position, for the 6th year in row and we have a new first place in the individual category, taking over
    after Lena Österberg 6 consecutive wins.Lena is moving to take care of the ESG introduction in the whole firm and has left
    the position to Kristofer Liljeberg, who keeps its position at the top. Second is ABG Sundal Collier, this year together with SEB
    Equity Research who manage to do a little bit stronger ranking for every year. In the third spot we have Nordea and Danske Bank
    in a shared position. Fourth place DnB who was ranked among the top four for the first time 2019, and now they share the place
    with Handelsbanken. The Swedish Market has developed to 7 Firms from the “Original 6” (Famous from NHL on the Ice Hockey
    Market) due to their current dominance on the Swedish Research Market. On the next level Pareto Securities, Kepler Cheuvreux
    and especially Erik Penser start to really close the gap and has been really active. Erik Penser has expanded their Research, but still
    more stock picking strategy and together with Redeye they focus mostly on the Micro Cap market. Finally you could see signs from
    UBS restart in the Swedish Market.

    The Market has slowly adapted both Mifid Rules as well as the new Virtual World forced by the global Covid 19 situation. We
    have also seen a growing market for “Sponsored Corporate Analysis” for a couple of years now. Still we could not give you exact
    figures of that but Companies from 100 Million SEK up to over 10 billions SEK seem to buy these services. Around Erik Penser
    and Redeye, also some of the big firms has started to offer this service but here the market seems also to be split in two tiers.

    This year the first individual top spot was taken by the Chief of Carnegie Kristofer Liljeberg and his Team mate Erik Hultgård,
    both with a background in the Health Care sector. Second is Magnus Andersson from ABG Sundal Collier who have dominated
    the Banking Sector for years. This year we have no levels on the rest of the top ten list, however we add people on the top list by,
    winning a sector, or reaching at least 100 points.In the survey, we also add Christer Linde, ABG Sundal Collier, Tobias Kaj, ABG

        TOP RANKED MEDIA
        The ranking is based on 345 responses out of 1500 CEOs, CFOs, IR and Press officers of Swedish listed
        com- panies as well as fund managers, investment managers, equity analysts belonging to the Swedish
        financial community. They gave votes for the best journalists in different sectors and voted for the best
        media in five categories. The survey was made for the twenty fith year (25th). This year the field work was
        conducted by online communication, compiled by Financial Hearings and Svensk Image.

        If you look at the distribution, Dagens industri won the Daily media with SVD, Svenska Dagbladet as the
        runner up. In weekly trade, Affärsvärlden is still in top after 25 years, followed by Börs- veckan. Here we
        also saw the closing of Veckans Affärer, one of the market’s oldest and most respected economic magazi-
        nes. The News agency Direkt (Infront) hold its top position but the challenge from Bloomberg News is
        there. On digital media di.se hold its position with a close connection to Dagens Industri and today basi-
        cally all media has their own digital channels. On the TV and Radio side DITV closed the gap to EFN
        TV and they shared the first spot, with Ekonomiekot as a runner up. A Special note also to TT News
        Agency, that still fill up a lot of gaps in Swedish Media overall.

                           Ulf Petersson

                           The winner of the honorary award in Björn Davegårdh’s memory is a sharp stock
                           market writer. He is very analytical and is knowledgeable in many areas and presents
                           this in an excellent way, both in print and in podcasts. The analyzes are characterized
                           by sharp insights, humor and also interesting conclusions which, after some time of
                           reflection, give the reader a sense of obviousness regarding investment decisions.
                           He has worked as an analyst and fund manager, but most of all he has been a journa-
                           list. At Affärsvärlden, Börsveckan, Veckans Affärer and now Dagens Industri, he is a
                           very popular person both among colleagues and readers.
