Professionalisation in the German Private Equity Industry
During the global industry consolidation, Germany’s Private Equity industry professionalised and now has a large number of highly experienced managers with an international background.
- The majority of top-level managers have more than 10 years Private Equity Experience, with a quarter of those at CEO/partner level looking back on more than 15 years.
- In addition to that, teams are also benefiting from the experience and know-how of different market cycles and increasing internationalisation.
- Serial Entrepreneurs are also moving into the Private Equity sector in Germany (H. Plattner, K. Tschira, Samwer brothers, H. Knürr).
