The foundation for this Swedish publisher was registered as the limited company as early as on May 22, 1911. On May 16, 1967, the publisher registered a name change to 'Aktiebolaget Verbum-Kyrkliga Centralförlaget', a.k.a on Discogs.

Its parent company was first registered as 'Svenska Kyrkans Ekonomi Aktiebolag', a.k.a. on Discogs, on December 11, 1975, because the Church of Sweden and its various ecclesiastical bodies needed a dedicated limited company for coordination within the sector for publishing and educational materials.

'Svenska Kyrkans Ekonomi Aktiebolag', a.k.a. on Discogs, acquired for this purpose both the publishing house , registered under the full name 'Aktiebolaget Verbum-Kyrkliga Centralförlaget' since May 16, 1967, in Stockholm, and the printing group 'Håkan Ohlsson tryckeri AB', founded in 1862 but registered as a limited company from 1937, in Lund.

On August 13, 1982, the parent company 'Svenska Kyrkans Ekonomi Aktiebolag', a.k.a. , changed its registered name to ' Förvaltning Aktiebolag'.

The subsidiary publisher of the parent company ' Förvaltning Aktiebolag' registered its new full name as 'Verbum Förlag Aktiebolag', a.k.a. 'Verbum Förlag AB' on Discogs, on November 23, 1982. The next name change occurred when the parent company ' Förvaltning Aktiebolag' was registered as 'Verbum Aktiebolag' on July 23, 1986.

The most recent name changes, first of the parent publisher 'Verbum Aktiebolag' to Berling Media AB, were registered on November 13, 2013, and thereafter the subsidiary publisher 'Verbum Förlag Aktiebolag', 556010-2526, a.k.a. 'Verbum Förlag AB' on Discogs, to the new full name Verbum AB, registered on December 18, 2013.
