Innovation to the top: FINVIA strives for a leading position in the multi-family office sector
- Capital market outlook: Equities, gold, private equity belong in every portfolio
- Oliver Bierhoff: "Sports business as a valuable asset class"
- Michael Jänsch: "With us, the entrepreneur is the star"
Frankfurt am Main, June 7, 2024 - The multi-family office FINVIA expects inflation to remain at the current rather high level. "Inflation has not yet been beaten, even if politicians and central bankers in Europe in particular are giving this impression," said Reinhard Panse, Chief Investment Officer of FINVIA, at a press conference held by the company in Frankfurt am Main. In addition to the usual influencing factors such as high energy prices or increased wages due to the declining number of workers, populist politicians at the head of governments and states are also fueling inflation. Panse explains: "Populists like to bully the economy and often make economically wrong decisions to satisfy their voter base. As we are also dealing with a growing number of undemocratic and anti-Western states worldwide, supply chains need to be restructured and military spending increased. This will further increase inflation risks and government debt." If Donald Trump wins the election in the USA, then "this ominous constellation will not be resolved any time soon", Panse suspects. Against this backdrop, the capital market expert sees opportunities in tangible assets. In addition to equities and gold, real estate and private equity remain an important component of asset allocation.
FINVIA Sports
The sports business has also developed into an increasingly valuable asset class. "The sports business is a fast-growing sector. At FINVIA Sports, we combine this potential with decades of expertise, a unique network and first-class financial services," emphasizes Oliver Bierhoff, co-founder and Chairman of FINVIA Sports. FINVIA Sports provides investors with access to investment opportunities in the globally expanding sports industry. Since its foundation in November 2023, three investment opportunities have already been established in European and US professional sports.
In addition to investment opportunities in the sports business, FINVIA Sports offers professional athletes bespoke solutions to wealth management in order to professionally increase and protect their wealth - even after their active career. FINVIA Sports is the company's latest activity and is intended to contribute to the further growth of the FINVIA multi-family office.
Strengthening entrepreneurship
In addition to professional athletes and institutional investors, FINVIA's new strategic orientation focuses in particular on entrepreneurs. "For us, the entrepreneur is the star. They invest, drive innovation, create jobs, secure the continued existence of their companies and thus have a direct impact on the country's economic development. We will focus on their needs and interests and support them at all times with our solutions, our experience and our network," explains Michael Jänsch, CEO of FINVIA.
In addition to analyzing the overall financial situation of entrepreneurs, FINVIA's services range from strategic asset allocation and advice on access to individual asset classes to industry-leading reporting and controlling.
With a team of almost 90 experts, FINVIA has used its innovative strength and expertise in recent years to create a new offering that is impressive in terms of quality. With around seven billion euros under management at wealth (as at June 2024), FINVIA has built a stable foundation for its successful further development and is convinced that it will continue to play a pioneering role as a family office. "We have laid very good foundations and are building on our success to date to become the leading family office in Germany," said Jänsch at the press conference in Frankfurt.
