In other words, I don't think it has any hidden significance. The name probably has been (or will be?) mentioned elsewhere in the document.

Aha (lightbulb)... I just read your example again (in parentheses), and I think the text is referring to the company's registered name:
"[name], with registered company name [name]" or one of your suggestions "operating under the busines name...."
It is hard to tell when you can't see the full text, but I am pretty sure this is what you are after...!

Note from asker:
| Thanks Dana. I really appreciate your help and input. I am sufficiently convinced that the original text is not entirely clear in its intent - hence have thrown back the question to the lawyers of what they mean. Thanks again. Much appreciated. |

Discussion
I am not suggesting this is the correct translation from a legal perspective, but hopefully it should make it clear what the Swedish says.
