FINN has an outstanding starting point, with strong financial results, incredibly talented employees, a unique working environment, and a brand that the whole of Norway knows and loves. We will continue to create engaging services that help people buy, sell, give away - and dream. The strategy set out for FINN is an exciting one, and now all of us - across FINN and Schibsted and together with our customers and our users - will deliver world-class experiences,' says Anders Skoe.
