It is noteworthy to the criterion of geographic continuity that prints our growth. For practical purposes the six countries, with Switzerland, which are already present share physical borders, allowing you to capitalize on certain types of synergies with travel as the fact that some of our current and potential customers have in turn with a presence in several of these countries. We can develop and thus strengthen our partnership relationship":

"We greatly value the opportunity to invest jointly with Cellnex, the European leader in telecommunications infrastructure, as well as with Swiss Life an excellent Swiss partner", said Vicente Vento, co-founder and CEO of DTCP. The acquisition, continues, "this important portfolio of towers of telecommunications in Switzerland represents a landmark and benchmark agreement for DTCP Private Equity, and trust that with the planned substantial increase of data traffic and the next generation of connectivity services, the experience of Cellnex such as industrial operator and a stable macroeconomic environment, this transaction will result in a good outcome for our customers."

Stefan M chler, Chief Investment Officer (CIO) of the Swiss Life Group, has also commented "welcomed by be able to materialize this investment together with two partners of proven experience. Infrastructures constitute assets of investment long term fit perfectly into our portfolio of uninversione and in the long-term liabilities of a company that operates in the insurance sector. Technological developments and digitization are an increasing demand of infrastructure that could give output to the increasing flows of data. This transaction allows us to take advantage of these trends by obtaining an attractive return for our investment."
