The Swedish Fund Selection Agency gives notice of the procurement of Technology funds

There are nine global technology funds in the IT and communications fund category on the fund platform today. FTN plans to procure up to eight funds in this category.

“We want to give savers access to some of the most attractive technology funds on the market. The aim is to raise the quality of the fund platform and strengthen savers' opportunities for good long-term returns. We hope to see considerable interest from fund managers around the world”, says Erik Fransson, Executive Director at FTN.

FTN will terminate the existing fund agreements, but these funds will remain available for trading until the procurement process is completed and new fund agreements are signed.

Important information for tenderers:

• Last day for tenders: 11 December 2025, 23:59 (CET)
• Place of submission: the procurement platform e-Avrop
• Tender fee must be paid when the tender is submitted
• Questions about the procurement submitted via e-Avrop until: 27 November 2025
• Answers to questions will be published until: by 5 December 2025
• More information and procurement documentation can be found here.

For a tender to be evaluated, the fund and the fund manager must meet the requirements specified in the procurement documentation and the terms and conditions applicable to fund agreements with the Swedish Fund Selection Agency. All tenders must contain complete and accurate information.

All tenderers are treated equally, meaning no separate information about the procurement is shared with individual actors.

Please note that documents received by an authority, such as tenders, are public documents and may therefore be disclosed in their entirety if someone requests access to them. However, information protected by confidentiality is not disclosed. It is therefore important that the fund manager clarifies which parts of the material submitted in the tender should be covered by confidentiality and describes in what way the fund manager would suffer harm if the information were disclosed. However, FTN will make an independent confidentiality assessment, which in turn may ultimately be reviewed by a court.
