“As the demand for new construction apartments grows, we are participating in the implementation of promising real estate projects and increasing the supply of high-quality new housing. We have been cooperating with the Eika group of companies with many years of experience for a long time, so we continue the partnership by further financing the projects developed by the company in Vilnius,” says SEB Bank Deputy President and Director of Business Banking Aivaras Čičelis.
