Co-CEO Helge Krogsbøl comments:

Co-CEO Christian Fladeland comments:
– “Heimstaden Bostad is well positioned to navigate the current volatile market environment. Our limited refinancing needs provide strong visibility and resilience against short-term fluctuations, while we continue to see solid and competitive appetite from banks for residential real estate lending, supported by substantial available capital.”
