Hannover Finanz Group is a private equity firm based in Hannover, Germany. Established in 1979, it is also one of the oldest private equity houses and has, from the start, focused on medium-sized businesses in all sectors of trade, service and industry.

Over nearly three decades extensive experience in the valuation and support of middle-market enterprises have been acquired. The interdis... ciplinary team offers practical experience of a wide variety of industries and is backed up by a network of strategic partners, experts and consultants in the fields of management and finance. It is common practise at HANNOVER Finanz that the project manager who initially acquired a company will remain the contact person for the entrepreneur throughout the whole holding period. HANNOVER Finanz draws its investment capital from major institutional investors in the banking and insurance sectors. A wide variety of companies take advantage of the experience in fund management and the agency agreements. The HANNOVER Finanz Group invests in businesses undergoing a succession of ownership or needing capital to fund expansion. As the so-called "evergreen" funds run for an unlimited term, HANNOVER Finanz is under no pressure to resell the holdings it acquires by a set date and is accordingly able to sustain long-term commitments to the medium-sized companies it services as private equity partner. The HANNOVER Finanz Group has participated in well-known enterprises such as Fielmann, Rossmann and Aixtron AG and helped them grow over many years. For many companies, it is the groups business expertise and willingness to enter into long-term commitments that makes them decide in favour of HANNOVER Finanz.More
