Responsibility & sustainability

Our guiding principle is to bring together promising companies with first-class managers and to develop the companies we invest in as active, value-adding shareholders. Promoting their growth, reducing waste of resources, and supporting future-proof structures and strategies – this is our ultimate goal.

To achieve this, environmental and social aspects as well as those of good corporate governance (ESG) are relevant to us because they are important prerequisites for sustainably increasing a company’s value.

We are convinced that companies create sustainable value through their inventiveness and tireless efforts to

  • increase customer satisfaction through longer-lasting and more useful products and services,
  • make the best use of raw materials, and
  • provide a challenging but humane work environment.

 

“We promote decisions that contribute to the sustainable success of our companies – unbureaucratically with a strong hands-on mentality.”

As private equity shareholders, we take a strictly rational and comprehensible approach instead of being guided by different, possibly conflicting personal interests. We see ourselves as having a responsibility towards our investors, our portfolio companies and their employees, and the society in which we live.

In the interests of these groups, we want to positively influence the ecosystems in which we are involved. The goal of this guiding principle is to sustainably increase the value and thus the attractiveness of our portfolio companies – at all relevant levels.
