"We are happy to strengthen our presence in the Nordics by establishing a subsidiary in Helsinki. Finland has a transparent and well-established market, where we see great potential for further growth," says Ove Christian Norheim, Head Funds and Asset Management of Swiss Life Asset Managers Nordic. 

Swiss Life Asset Managers is focused on developing property portfolios in the European markets and works with local teams of experts. As at 30 June 2025, Swiss Life Asset Managers’ real estate assets amounted to approx. EUR 95 billion, of which almost EUR 1 billion are invested in Finland. Over the next few years, Swiss Life Asset Managers expects significant growth opportunities in the Nordics, many of them in Finland.

The subsidiary will be led by Jussi Raitaniemi, who joins Swiss Life Asset Managers from Trevian. With his experience and network, Jussi will be a great addition for Swiss Life Asset Managers in Finland. Together with Kasper Joukama, who recently joined Swiss Life Asset Managers Nordic as a Senior Asset Manager, he will further contribute to building the company's presence and commitment to the local market.

 "We are very pleased to welcome Jussi Raitaniemi and Kasper Joukama to Swiss Life Asset Managers. Their understanding of real estate and long-standing asset management experience make them a good fit for our new subsidiary in Finland. I am confident that their extensive know-how in asset management and network in the real estate industry will be a great advantage, and we look forward to working with them to expand our presence in Finland," says Christian Ness, CEO of Swiss Life Asset Managers Nordic.
