The expertise of the Investment Committee is at the disposal of the Board of Directors in an advisory capacity for new investments. As specialists in their respective fields, they have decades of national and international experience with correspondingly large networks.
As experienced investors, they focus on the unique selling propositions and growth potential of the young companies.

 

As an investment company, it is essential to build up a corresponding portfolio. The focus is on dynamic, progressive investments that offer both long-term and medium- to short-term opportunities for returns. Since there is no shortage of companies looking for capital, industry and subject-specific knowledge and experience are required to support the board of directors in the decision-making process.

 

Chances are, most people’s day jobs won’t allow them to build a network in one high-growth segment, let alone several, fast enough. In addition to money and nerves, you need access to a stream of investment proposals. Individuals likely never have enough “deal flow” or lack specific expertise to quickly assess the deals presented.

“The price is what you pay. The value is what you get.”

Profile of an Investment company

With investment companies, investors can use the expertise of experienced specialists to increase their capital over the long term. The investment philosophy provides information about the strategy and the investment segment.

        FACTS

The current market environment, with bubbles forming and interest rates set to rise, is contributing to the growing uncertainty among investors, who are increasingly looking for alternatives to single stock investments. Innovative investment companies with sector-specific investment horizons are a good option – always provided these products can claim long-term above-average performance in their category.

As a “multi-investment”, shares with a stake in all portfolio companies are a promising alternative to the single stock search. Especially if the portfolio consists practically of non-listed “growth drivers”. These investment vehicles generate returns directly from the value chain and future profits of the respective start-ups, for example in the form of dividends or stake sales. 

Investment companies can not only invest in listed companies, but they are also allowed to provide venture capital to companies. This flexibility gives them the opportunity to invest in less liquid companies from growth markets, start-ups in various development cycles or pre-IPOs.

In this way, they use the chance to identify unknown “hidden stars” at an early stage and to bring potential future global market leaders into the portfolio that are under the radar of the big public. The liquid funds are available to portfolio companies for the long term.
