Investment Property Databank IPD has taken over all the index and benchmarking operations in Sweden from its local partner SFI.

The move gives IPD the opportunity to develop further its benchmarking and portfolio analysis services for property investors in Sweden. IPD has published indices for the Swedish property market for 15 years, contributing to the transparency of the Swedish property market.

'We look forward to closer customer relationships and the opportunity to develop IPD services, as we have done in other markets. We will, among other things, launch a new service including rental information to help the industry understand risk as well as performance,' said Laurent Ternisien, group managing director of IPD.
