International approach

Our basis is Kronberg near Frankfurt: We see ourselves as a catalyst and integrative part of the financial community in Germany

Our core markets with which we started almost 9 years ago are Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. Over the last 8 years however we have been involved in projects in 14 different countries. We are part of the international community with employees who have worked and studied for many years abroad, experienced cultural diversity, and built up approporiate networks. This differentiates us clearly from "local" consultants.

Our strategic markets are the GCC (namely Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates) as well as the Nordic countries. Throughout our work we have been regularly exposed to the US, UK as well as relevant Continental European locations.

What differentiates our strategic markets however from our core markets are the active resources that we invest into the development of sustainable structures. We have been screening dozens of jurisdictions and their market participants (among others mainly investors, intermediaries and multipliers such as investment consultants) as part of our model-based process for the last 8-9 years with a long term perspective.

While we focus in depth on our core markets we allocate substantial resources to developing our strategic markets into core ones. This naturally requires employees with local experience and relevant language skills and greater resources devoted to the individual region. We have already been involved in numerous projects in the GCC and have accumulated great insights into the region. Our decision to already move into the region 8 years ago proved to be faresighted and there is a strong comitment to further increase our local presence and activities.
