I am proud that Hemsö will be using the loan from the Nordic Investment Bank to broaden its investor base with a new lender that supports the company’s focus on sustainability and social infrastructure. We would like to extend this partnership to similar institutions in order to further diversify our financing sources. We entered 2018 on a high note and I am looking forward to the rest of the year with confidence. The year will be characterized by a stable trend in the property management portfolio, and hard work to complete a number of ongoing development projects, says Nils Styf.
