From The National Maritime Museum:
The house flag of Svenska Lloyd Rederi A/B, Gothenburg. A rectangular white flag with a blue Maltese cross in the centre. The flag is made of cotton fabric and is machine sewn. A rope and clip is attached. The house flag was originally yellow with a blue saltire. The present design was substituted at the time of the First World War because of the resemblance between the old design and the Russian naval ensign.
(Loughran and Brown show similar images - definitely no Maltese crosses).

Gothenburg - white burgee bordered blue top and
bottom; blue disk, yellow 5-pointed star.
Jarig Bakker, 19 January 2005
The flag of a white pennant, blue border and blue
circle bearing a yellow star has been incorrectly allocated by Brown
1926 [9] [Wedge gets it right in 1929 [9]].
It is actually that of Ångfartygs Thule which had been formed in 1870 and taken over and absorbed in
1916 by Rederi A/B Svenska Lloyd who then used their funnel but with
their own flag of white with the blue cross paty.
