EQT AB has appointed Gustav Segerberg as Chief Financial Officer, succeeding Kim Henriksson, who will move into a Senior Advisor role after nearly eight years as CFO.

EQT AB has appointed Gustav Segerberg as Chief Financial Officer, effective 18 July 2026, succeeding Kim Henriksson, who has decided to step down after nearly eight years in the role.

Henriksson will remain with EQT as a Senior Advisor, supporting an orderly transition and continuing to contribute to the private markets firm and its portfolio companies. In the new role, he will focus on providing strategic support to EQT portfolio companies, including IPO preparations and public company financial governance. Segerberg has held senior positions at EQT over the past decade and was most recently Head of the CEO Office. He has also been a member of the Executive Committee since 2022.

EQT stated that Segerberg had played a crucial role in the firm’s growth, including driving EQT AB’s M&A activities and supporting its expansion into the private wealth space. The company noted that Segerberg had overseen EQT AB’s transformative M&A activities, including the combinations with Baring Private Equity Asia, Exeter Property Group and, most recently, Coller Capital. It added that he had also supported organic growth initiatives, including the firm’s expansion into private wealth.

Henriksson has served as CFO of EQT since 2018. During his tenure, EQT stated that he played a central role in the firm’s development into a leading global publicly listed private markets firm. The company added that under Henriksson’s leadership, EQT had established a professional finance function supporting its development into a global and transparent publicly listed private markets platform.

Per Franzén, Chief Executive Officer of EQT, remarked that Segerberg’s understanding of EQT’s strategy, business model and stakeholder relationships made him well placed to take on the CFO role.

“Having worked closely with Gustav for many years, I have the utmost confidence in his ability,” Franzén stated. “Kim has been a deeply valued partner through one of the most transformative chapters in our firm’s history.” Franzén added that Henriksson would continue as a Senior Advisor for the benefit of EQT’s portfolio companies, clients and shareholders.

Commenting on his appointment, Segerberg said he was honoured to be appointed CFO and looked forward to working with EQT’s team to continue delivering for shareholders.

“EQT is a truly unique firm with a strong culture, a clear strategic vision, and substantial opportunities ahead,” Segerberg stated. “I am committed to building on the strong financial foundation Kim has established and driving EQT’s continued growth.”
