Our Investors - Mid-sized Holdings
Our Investors.
Selling companies from Munich & Berlin
High profits in recent
years have led to enormous capital reserves among investors, who are now
looking for investment opportunities. Investments are being made in sustainable
business models, good market prospects, and scalable services. This is because
professional investors acquire companies in order to further develop their
sales and earnings, technologies, distribution, locations, etc. with capital,
strategic know-how, and, if necessary, operational support. These
optimizations, as well as synergy effects through further acquisitions, are the
growth drivers for acquired companies.
These buyers dominate the
M&A market:
Mid-sized Holdings.
Holdings for medium-sized
companies acquire companies that continue to operate as such under the umbrella
of the holding company, whereby there is no merger of acquired companies or the
establishment of corporate groups by means of buy and build. These holding
companies generally have a narrower industry focus than, for example, private
equity and achieve maximum synergy effects for their subsidiaries within the
holding structure.
The capital employed comes
mainly from private investors or from the holding company's initial public
offering. Former shareholders of acquired companies also invest part of the
sale price in the shares of the broadly based holding companies, which, unlike
in the case of a sole proprietor, significantly reduces the entrepreneurial
risk through risk diversification.
