Will BCP unveil identity of zl. 1.5 billion project investor?
Kolobrzeg local authorities are blocking Danish Baltic Center Polska (BCP) zl. 1.5 billion investment claiming they are put off by the anonymity of the investor. BCP which would like to build a 43 hectare tourism center has so far been unable to secure a contract for perpetual lease of the city-owned land, as the local government demands that the company reveal the identity of all its shareholders and sources of finance. Under the initial agreement, both sides have until the end of March to close the deal. According to Piotr Pasikowski, the spokesman for the Kolobrzeg council, the contract will receive a green light as soon as all investors are known. BCP however, claims there is no risk connected to the project and says it finds the apprehension odd. (Puls Biznesu, p. 9) J.K.
