Ombildat

Ombildat is a Swedish past participle adjective derived from the verb ombilda, which means to reform, reorganize, or restructure. The term indicates that something has been formed again into a new structure or form. It is typically used to describe changes that alter the organizational or legal composition of an entity rather than its mere name.

In municipal contexts, ombildning refers to the reorganization of local government units, often through mergers or redrawing of boundaries. A municipality that has undergone such a process may be described as ombildad. In corporate and organizational settings, ombildning denotes changes in a company’s legal form, ownership structure, or group configuration, such as converting an entity to a different legal form or reorganizing subsidiaries. The nuance of ombildat emphasizes structural transformation rather than a simple rebranding.

Common usage examples include phrases like “ett ombildat bolag” (a restructured company) or “kommunen ombildades genom sammanslagning” (the municipality was restructured through a merger). The term is widely used in administrative, legal, and business language in Sweden and other Swedish-speaking contexts.

Related concepts include ombildning (the process itself), omstrukturering (reorganization), and fusion (merger). While closely related, these terms highlight different aspects of organizational change, with ombildat focusing on the resulting form.
