Frankfurt - With Meritz Financial Group ("Meritz") and IGIS Asset Management ("IGIS"), publity AG (Scale, ISIN DE0006972508) has gained two strong financing and investment partners for the acquisition of German office properties. Over the next 18 months, investments in publity AG's real estate portfolio in the higher three-digit million range are planned as part of the cooperation.
