Røkke has been a driving force in the development of Aker since the 1990s. Røkke launched his business career with the purchase of a 69-foot trawler in the United States in 1982, and gradually built a leading worldwide fisheries business. In 1996, the Røkke-controlled company RGI purchased enough Aker shares to become Aker’s largest shareholder, and later merged RGI with Aker. Røkke owns 68.2% of Aker ASA through The Resource Group TRG AS and subsidiaries.

Røkke is Aker ASA’s primary owner and Chairman. He is currently a director in several companies, including Aker Solutions ASA, Aker BioMarine AS, Aker Horizons AS and Ocean Yield ASA.
