Press Release

TeliaSonera Finland aquires real estate property Sturenportti

TeliaSonera Finland Oyj will aquire the shares in real-estate company Kiinteistö Oy Sturenportti from the Sonera Pension Fund at the price of 32.5 MEUR. Kiinteistö Oy Sturenportti’s assets consists of real estate property Sturenportti in Helsinki and is part of TeliaSonera Finland’s head quarter premises.

TeliaSonera Finland will renovate the real estate at a cost currently estimated to 15 MEUR.

TeliaSonera Finland estimates that under the current general real-estate price and financing cost levels, buying the premise, rather than having a long-term 10 – 12 year rental agreement for it, will be a more profitable alternative.
