Since 1990 the rights to Ulvaeus' music have been administered by Dutch company Fintage.

This company subsequently entered into an agreement with Stanova, a company based in the Netherlands Antilles.
As a result, 95 percent of the composer's royalties make their way to the low-tax Caribbean island.
Stanova in turn is owned, indirectly, by the composer himself.


When the tax board looked into the network of companies that own the rights to Ulvaeus' music it did not approve the tax structures and increased the amount of Swedish tax accordingly.
