Poalim Equity said, “Poalim Equity, as the investment arm of Bank Hapoalim, frequently examines entry into real investments in various areas. The company does not comment on the investments it is examining or that have been offered to it, or those that have not been offered, and only announces investments if and when the required procedures are completed.”
