In recent weeks, media have once again reported that Barbro Ehnbom, an alumna of the Stockholm School of Economics (SSE), has had connections to Jeffrey Epstein. We would therefore once again like to clarify what has happened from the SSE’s perspective. As soon as the leadership of SSE became aware in 2015 that there was a connection between Ehnbom and Epstein, we ended our collaboration with Ehnbom. We are appalled by these reports and strongly distance ourselves from everything that has come to light.

A subtle change in how climate risk is communicated—mentioning a person’s local area—can significantly increase attention to disaster preparedness messages, according to a new study by researchers at the Stockholm School of Economics and Harvard University, published in Nature Human Behaviour. The findings offer a practical, low-cost strategy for governments, insurers and local authorities seeking to boost climate resilience in vulnerable communities.

The Financial Times has ranked the Stockholm School of Economics among Europe’s top 20 business schools in 2025. SSE is the highest-ranked institution in the Scandinavian region and the only Nordic school to make the top 20.

The Stockholm School of Economics has removed the Swedish SAT (Högskoleprovet) requirement for national applicants to our bachelor programs. This has raised many questions. President Lars Strannegård clarifies the situation and explains what the requirement led to, and why we have now chosen to change course.

Transforming industries and supply chains towards sustainability and carbon neutrality – that is the mission of Professor Constantin Blome, newly appointed Chair in Transformative Innovation at the Stockholm School of Economics.
