Aktiebolag
Aktiebolag (Swedish pronunciation: [ˈâktsɪɛbʊˌlɑːɡ], "stock company") is the Swedish term for "limited company" or "corporation". When used in company names, it is abbreviated AB (in Sweden), Ab (in Finland), or, rarely, A/B (dated), roughly equivalent to the abbreviations Corp., Ltd., and PLC. The state authority responsible for registration of aktiebolag in Sweden is called the Swedish Companies Registration Office.
