EFN Finansmagasinet has recruited Gabriel Isskander to its equity research team. Isskander, the former editor-in-chief of Börsveckan, will focus primarily on Swedish large-cap stocks.
"It will be incredibly exciting to return to equity analysis. Since the autumn of 2024, I have focused on my own investments, mainly outside the public markets, but I have followed the stock market closely throughout. After a brief hiatus, it feels particularly inspiring to return to writing – especially at EFN, which has truly impressed me with its quality and market coverage," says Gabriel Isskander.
Ture Wester has also joined the firm as a junior analyst.
EFN is owned by Handelsbanken.
