"CMS Wistrand advised SBB on a SEK 32 billion transaction transferring approximately 740 social properties to Public Property Invest ASA, creating Europe’s largest listed social-infrastructure platform. The deal streamlines SBB into education, residential and social infrastructure segments while strengthening its balance sheet; SBB retains a majority stake in PPI."

CMS Wistrand advised SBB on the SEK 32 billion transaction that creates Europe’s largest listed social-infrastructure platform through Public Property Invest ASA (PPI), with SBB retaining a majority stake in the new listed vehicle. The transaction involves the transfer of approximately 740 social properties to PPI and streamlines SBB’s operations into three distinct segments: education, residential and social infrastructure. The deal is designed to strengthen SBB’s financial position by reducing debt, extending maturities and providing greater flexibility to support continued growth. As a result, PPI becomes the leading listed platform for social infrastructure in Europe while SBB maintains a controlling interest. CMS Wistrand represented SBB with a team composed by: partners Fredrik Råsberg, Per Englund, Robert Kullgren, Jakob Bernander, Niklas Larsson and Erik Hygrell; counsels Nicklas Bexelius and Katrin Salwén; and associates Anna Welander, Malin Alpenmyr and Felicia ten Heggeler. “We are delighted to have been able to contribute to such a significant transaction for SBB and the market as a whole,” said Fredrik Råsberg, partner at CMS Wistrand.
