Pareto's Swedish portfolio rose by 0.85 percent in February, which was a clear underperformance compared to the OMXGI benchmark index, which increased by 4.48 percent.

This outcome has prompted Pareto to replace half of its portfolio ahead of March. Departing are Alfa Laval, Bilia, Munters, Cheffelo, and Platzer. They are being replaced by Green Landscaping, Getinge, SKF, Eastnine, and Lime Technologies.

Notably, Pareto is retaining the best-performing stock from February, NCAB, which climbed by 19.3 percent, as well as the laggards Xvivo and Mips, which fell by 16.7 percent and 8.3 percent, respectively.

The portfolio was launched in February 2017 and has delivered a total return of 463 percent, significantly outperforming the benchmark index at 160 percent.
