will be used to repay maturing debt.

improving the portfolio continues

Akelius sold or has signed agreements to sell properties in Paris totaling EUR 26 million.
Three properties were sold during the quarter.
As these properties are larger capital projects,
disposals will improve the portfolio earlier than expected.  
 

CEO, Ralf Spann       

As limited market transactions delay capitalization rate stabilization, Akelius is still selective with transactions.
Improving the existing portfolio by finishing large capital projects and reducing vacancies pays off.
With the financial guarantee from the main owner, Akelius financial position is very strong.
