Following reports that Klarna is preparing to re-launch its plans to IPO, a recent EFN article highlights the factors contributing to this momentum. SV Ventures, which has advised investors in Klarna since 2020, was featured in the article, with our CEO Erik Arnetz sharing his insights:
"The strong recovery in U.S. tech markets and renewed investor appetite for fintech have opened a window for listings again... I personally believe the timing for Klarna is optimal."
Arnetz also notes Klarna’s improved profitability and its transformation into a neobank as key factors likely to attract strong investor interest. He sees a potential listing as early as September, with a valuation possibly reaching $20 billion.
