Justice system

Portfolio

Properties for the justice system accounted for 11 per cent of Hemsö's total property value at year-end. Hemsö owns 28 properties of which 15 in Sweden, 5 in Germany and 8 in Finland. The buildings house premises for the police, the Prison and Probation Service, courts of law and the Prosecution Authority. Government agencies comprise the majority of Hemsö's tenants, accounting for 100 per cent of the contracted annual rent. 

Demand

Demand for new premises is high and a number of new-build properties are planned for forthcoming years. Courts and the police are relocating from older premises to new, more customised premises. The main reason for this trend is the progression towards space-efficient premises and increased security due to the legal system's elevated threat scenario.
