- Det Østasiatiske Kompagni A/S operates as an investment holding company focused on maximizing the value of its portfolio assets. The company engages primarily in the production of acrylics through operations in Thailand; it pursues investment, trade, industry, and service activities, including the acquisition and disposal of minority or majority stakes in Danish and foreign enterprises. Founded in 1897 and headquartered at Indiakaj 16, 1. sal, 2100 Copenhagen, Denmark, it maintains a lean structure with one employee and targets opportunities in asset management and related sectors across Europe and Asia.
In June 2024, the company changed its name from EAC Invest A/S to Det Østasiatiske Kompagni A/S, reviving its historical title originally established by Hans Niels Andersen. This rebranding aligns with its ongoing strategy to streamline operations and enhance its investment focus following prior divestitures and transformations from its origins as a shipping and trading conglomerate. Leadership includes Chairman Ole Steffensen, Vice Chairman Martin Thaysen, and CEO Kresten Mikael Valdal, appointed in 2022.
