AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD

  • Board of Directors appoints Johanna Hult Rentsch as new CEO

Platzer's CEO, P-G Persson, said:

-Thanks to a low percentage of capital market financing, disposals of residential building rights in Gamlestadens Fabriker and Södra Änggården, investment gains in development projects, as well as index-linked leases, we were spared the immediate risk of lack of liquidity and large drops in property values. On the contrary, 2022 was in many ways a record year, with higher net lettings, larger value gains, the highest income from property management and the lowest loan-to-value ratio than ever before.

- Just recently, it was confirmed that Johanna Hult Rentsch will be the new CEO of Platzer. I am very pleased that it is Johanna who will be taking over from me. A brilliant appointment for Platzer for the task of leading the company as we continue our work to make Gothenburg the best city in Europe to work in.
