There has been many demanding years which now start to show results and I have a very positive look of FöreningsSparbanken´s prospects for the future. Personally I have spent seven years of my professional life in banking, first in Föreningsbanken and then in FöreningsSparbanken in a very variable period. I feel it is right to accept the new challenges in the very expansive privatized healthcare sector where Bure is active both in Sweden and in Europe, comments Lars Idermark.
