Viktors Savins, member of the board of EfTEN Capital said, that this type of buildings is one of the most stable requests. The subject is well managed and it is one of the more orderly objects in my experience.
Viljar Arakas, CEO of EfTEN Capital AS, this is so far the largest single investment in Latvia. “EfTEN Capital intension is to enlarge its investment activity in Latvia because of good economical outlook and the fact that Latvia recently became the Eurozone’s 18th member.”
