All of this was to be completed in a very short period. The transaction was finalised today. “In a very short time and over a very intensive period of negotiations, we have capitalised on our longstanding and extensive M&A experience of the property transaction industry in order to identify and bring together potential investors. For Catella, the priorities have been to drive the process forward and to focus on possible new solutions,” says Lennart Schuss, Working Chairman of the Board of Catella's Nordic corporate finance companies.
