The collaboration between Alder and Innovestor focuses on Innovestor’s Real Estate business – specifically, the acquisition of properties and real estate companies. The partnership has spanned several years and dozens of acquisitions. We have provided tax, legal, and financial advisory services throughout the transaction process, including the planning and structuring stages, the legal execution of the deals, and the necessary post-transaction actions.
Tomi Asanti, Managing Partner of Innovestor’s real estate business, has nothing but positive things to say about the cooperation with Alder. “Our collaboration has worked extremely well. I have been particularly impressed by Alder’s knowledge of the real estate market and their expertise in investment models and processes,” Tomi explains. “I also feel that the process has been customer-oriented and straightforward without unnecessary bureaucracy,” he adds.

Alder has established a clear and effective process for executing property transactions with Innovestor. The division of responsibilities is well-defined, allowing Alder to integrate seamlessly into Innovestor’s team during the planning, negotiation, and execution of real estate transactions. “We have been able to support Innovestor even in challenging situations, despite significant changes in the real estate market and fluctuating economic conditions,” summarizes Suvi Vänskä, who is responsible for the client relationship.
From the beginning, mutual trust has been at the core of the collaboration, ensuring that tasks are carried out as agreed. Projects are easy to execute when cooperation is smooth, and roles are clear. Even though each acquisition process is unique, Alder has managed to adapt a flexible approach to each one while adhering to established principles of collaboration.
“It has been a great pleasure to work with Innovestor. What stands out is the way Innovestor’s team, led by Tomi Asanti, handles deals in cooperation with us. Everything moves forward smoothly, communication is easy, and most importantly – working on Innovestor’s projects is fun,” Suvi remarks happily.
Is there something the partnership has taught?
“The collaboration has taught us that even in challenging situations, we often achieve great results when all parties involved in the process, along with key stakeholders, are focused, committed, share the same goals, and maintain open lines of communication,” Tomi concludes.
