Banks and Building Societies

Germany´s banking system is traditionally founded on three pillars. This diverse banking offering is enriched by building societies, special credit institutions, investment banks and credit institutes specialised in niche markets. Despite the strong criticism that is voiced against the banking system´s diversity, we are convinced that the diversified structure prevailing in the banking world plays a significant role in spreading the risk, safeguarding the sector and maintaining the original services the credit economy is able to offer.

 

Indeed, the way highly developed specialised products offered by a range of entrepreneurially managed medium-sized savings and cooperative banks on a regional level complement the global banking system is exactly what gives this structure its attraction and value.

 

We have become acquainted with this varied and tense field over a period of decades and have supported all banking sectors in the placement of important and prominent managerial positions. This is how we have gotten to know and appreciate the mindset and mechanisms of these companies and their entrepreneurs.
