Doing Targeting Right

The German market offers an abundance of midmarket investment opportunities for almost every type of firm in every industry imaginable. In our minds, our clients maximize their opportunities, and consequently their benefits, by following a "looking forward" strategy. While it is crucial to constantly monitor and evaluate your expansion strategy by looking backward, proactively looking forward enables you to identify emerging investment opportunities best suited to your own profile.

To identify the ideal investment opportunities for you, doing targeting right is the most critical first step towards success.

In essence, UMi 4.0 exclusively follows 4 targeting approaches, which may be adopted depending on your specific requirements and overall investment strategy:

Opportunistic Approach: We have long-standing experience in identifying attractive investment opportunities in special situations, especially firms in financial and/or operating distress.

Research Approach: We identify a set of potential companies matching your predetermined target investment criteria.

Announcement Approach: We filter out attractive official and unofficial target companies based on prolific M&A database analyses. 

Market Insights Approach: We are aware of "silent" M&A processes, which would otherwise remain hidden, thanks to our dealmaking prowess and extensive M&A network.
