Under the letter of intent, Realprojekti's construction management, shopping centre management, and commercial consulting activities will be transferred to a new company that will be owned by Markku Hietala, Matti Karlsson and Vesa Olkkola.

Following the divestment, Capman Real Estate, led by partner Mika Matikainen, will concentrate on managing Capman's private equity real estate funds. Capman Real Estate and the new company will continue to work together.
Helsinki-listed Capman operates in the Nordic countries and Russia, and has EUR 3.5 bn in capital under management.
