About Skandia
We are part of the international Skandia group headquartered in Sweden. Established in 1855, it has grown to be one of Europe’s leading financial services companies with operations in 20 countries.
In Australia, Skandia commenced business in 2001 and today we offer a choice of long-term savings solutions, such as:
Managed funds
Personal superannuation
Corporate superannuation
Allocated Pensions
The Skandia Difference
The Skandia business model has proven highly successful. Within four years of commencing Australian operations, we have established offices in five states and have in excess of 130 employees.
Skandia products are primarily sold on the recommendation of a licensed financial adviser who is independent of Skandia. Skandia does not provide financial advice, or own any financial planning or advisory groups. As we are not an investment manager, rather the pioneers of ‘manage the managers’ (UK, 1985), our manager selection process is completely objective. This commitment to objectivity drives us to consistently review our investment menu.
Our global buying power and scale enables us to deliver quality investment managers, often not readily available in Australia, at competitive prices.
