06:24 AM EDT, 10/19/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Bank of Åland (ALBBV.HE) and Borgo agreed to gradually phase out their mortgage platform and services collaboration during the fourth quarter of 2026 and throughout 2027. The transition will migrate data, processes, and operational functions from the Finnish lender's platforms to Borgo's own systems, as the latter assumes responsibility for the services, according to a Monday release. The partnership is being terminated ahead of schedule following Borgo's acquisition of Hypoteket. The transaction is expected to positively impact Bank of Åland's fourth-quarter operating profit by 8 million euros. The bank will remain a shareholder in Borgo and will continue to act as its mortgage distributor in the Swedish market.
