IMMOFINANZ signs Green Loan for Warsaw Spire
On 6 November, IMMOFINANZ signed a new five-year, EUR 180 million green loan with Helaba, pbb Deutsche Pfandbriefbank and Berlin Hyp, secured by myhive Warsaw Spire, one of the tallest modern office towers in the capital of Poland with GLA of more than 71,000 sqm and a BREEAM Excellent certification. The green loan replaces a previous financing that was due to mature in January 2025.
