Non-traditional Asset Management

«You do not really understand something unless you can explain it to your grandmother.» Albert Einstein 1879-1955

The „Non Traditional Asset Management“, especially products such as Private Equity, Hedge Funds, Infrastructure Investments, Real Estate and Insurance Linked Securities, became a more and more increasing part in clients’ portfolios and was on a good way to replace the classic portfolio management in attractivity. This trend, however, has been stopped because of the big changes and the financial crisis.
The whole industry had to struggle with substantial problems within the last few months. But we see a first tendency of normalization and a reassurance of the market in this asset class. Despite of incoming regulations and basically raised transparency, or even because of that, there arise a lot of opportunities. There goes on a search for new creative minds on the product side as well as in sales management and we are expecting a lot of cooperation between companies and also mergers. As we do in Asset Management, we can revert to a huge practical know-how and a very good knowledge of the products.
