Start-up and expansion

We support startups and growth companies, especially from the financial services sector, in all relevant aspects of strategy definition through to implementation. This also includes customer acquisition and capital procurement. Our wide network of qualified and trusted service providers and investors allows us to provide fast and efficient assistance.

Our fee model is entrepreneurial and tailored to the needs of young companies. We often invest in the companies with which we cooperate ourselves. The same is true for established companies that have already received initial funding and are planning a further organic or inorganic surge in growth based on expansion strategies and capital growth.

As founders of our own companies and investors in young companies, we are familiar with the needs and challenges faced when establishing and expanding a business. This lets us quickly identify the critical path to success, develop matching solutions and implement these pragmatically and perceptively together with our customers.

Please feel free to contact us directly to discuss your business ideas and concerns. We can often provide fast and straight-forward support or provide helpful contacts from our network.

Strategy consulting and implementation support

Over the decades, we have covered almost all areas of strategy consulting and implementation in the financial services sector as well as for smaller and medium-sized companies: from growth to turnaround and in front, middle, and back offices for virtually all relevant business areas. These days we primarily advise asset managers, banks, insurers and real estate companies in relation to strategic positioning, growth initiatives, product and customer strategies and the associated necessary internal and external structures. Wherever possible, we look at the entire process, from beginning to end, in order to realise a high level of effectiveness and efficiency. Another focal point is the consistency of the external and internal appearance with regard to the business culture and expertise.

The work with our customers has a strategic focus. The measurability and achievability of the defined outcomes is absolutely essential. Key guiding principles of our work are innovation, value enhancement, sustainability and feasibility.

We do not see companies as an abstract organisational form, but as the entirety of its employees and stakeholders. In particular, their needs and capabilities need to be reconciled in consideration of the company objectives and transferred into corresponding concepts. Besides this conceptual planning, we also help our clients quickly and effectively implement the developed solutions in practice – naturally even when strategies have been developed by third parties.

Procurement of new business

We believe that a successful project is not just characterised by innovative and high-quality concepts, but also by their implementation. The effectiveness of a new marketing concept is defined by concrete transactions. “Trial and error” iteratively leads you to the best result. We support our customers in these activities. Depending on the topic, we also try to use our network to establish new business opportunities and procure customers for our clients.

Within our network, we can (where appropriate) also act as business mediators by bringing partners with complementary interests together. One partner offers what the other is looking for. As we are very familiar with the people and organisations involved, mediating contacts is generally simple. We would then also be pleased to assist with moderating the dialogue and providing support through to the successful transaction.

Corporate finance & Venture Capital

The majority of our projects are focussed on growth. This is often associated with an increased demand for equity, debt or mezzanine capital, whose structuring and procurement we can assist with in cooperation with our network partners. Our combination of strategy consulting, expertise in investment banking and our own asset management activities enables us to design, structure, manage and implement the entire financing process. Among other things, this includes strategic advice and the creation of pitch decks, financial models and data rooms. We have an extensive network of professional investors at home and abroad (venture capital/private equity funds, family offices, asset managers, high net worth individuals) as well as good contacts to well-known industrial companies that may be suitable as strategic investors.

If necessary, we consult with additional specialists from our network who deal with the legal and tax aspects, structure the details of the financial transactions or provide the necessary financing vehicles.

Besides capital procurement for business activities, we also act as contact mediators to investors for (independent) asset managers. Thanks to the marketing activities for the asset managers that we co-founded ourselves, we have extensive experience and contacts in this area. We first carry out a detailed due diligence of the asset manager to convince ourselves of the quality of the company and its products.
