YIT’s disclosure policy updated

YIT’s disclosure policy updated

YIT´s Board of Directors has on February 5, 2014 approved an updated disclosure policy for YIT Corporation. The most essential change concerns the publishing of significant projects or investor deals. The following is stated in the updated disclosure policy:

“Information on a project or investor deal is disclosed as a stock exchange release if the value of the started/signed project/deal exceeds EUR 100 million. The principle regarding significant projects is that the company’s own-developed projects are published when the decision to start the project has been made.  Contracting projects and investor deals are published once the agreement has been signed.”

There was no exact limit set for projects or investor deals to be published as stock exchange release in YIT’s previous disclosure policy.

The disclosure policy can be read in its entirety in the investors section on YIT’s homepage.
