About PPI
Public Property Invest was established in 2021 by SBB and Arctic Securities
with a long-term strategy of owning, operating, and developing socially
beneficial property in Norway. Sustainable property management is an integral
part of Public Property Invest's business.
Its portfolio of properties is characterized by strong tenants within the
public sector, such as the police, judiciary functions and public health
organizations, on long lease contracts and a high occupancy rate.
Public Property Invest's portfolio consists of more than 368,000 sqm across 61
properties which had an aggregate estimated value of around NOK 9,976 million
as of 31 December 2023. It has more than 125 public tenants in 26 cities.
Hundreds of subcontractors ensure that its tenants can fulfil their important
societal missions every day.
In the medium to long term, Public Property Invest is expected to generate NOK
690 million in normalised run-rate rental income, of which public tenants
constitute approximately 92 per cent. The company intends to be an active
consolidator in the market. With a strong balance sheet, it pursues an
opportunistic growth strategy.
