About
QvantX Sweden AB
A Stockholm AI and data consultancy for financial services, founded and run by Ani Björkström — twelve years across asset management, pension funds, banking and private equity, first in finance and then in technology.
The company
QvantX Sweden AB designs, builds and deploys AI and data solutions for banks, asset managers, pension funds and finance teams. The work spans AI use-case discovery, production agent builds, secure cloud data platforms and team enablement — and what the company learns on client work is published as free tutorials on the Ani Björkström | AI for Finance YouTube channel and as articles on this site.
The founder
Ani Björkström is an independent IT consultant, data and AI engineer and tech lead specialising in AI, Snowflake and SimCorp Dimension for asset management and private equity. She started her career in accounting and finance, holds an MSc in Finance and Accounting from the University of Westminster, and moved into software and data engineering — which is why her AI work speaks both the finance team’s language and the IT department’s.
She currently works with EQT Group, leads the integration stream of a SimCorp implementation at a Swedish national pension fund, and is an approved Anthropic partner. She moderated KvinnoKapital’s Lunch Lab on AI in asset management, ran a hands-on Claude workshop for women in finance, and was interviewed by AI educator Sabrina Ramonov on using AI in asset management.
