Our vision: We strive to be the best partner for our customers on their investment journey. At the beginning of 2025, the Finanzen.net Group was acquired by Inflexion, a leading European private equity firm in the mid-cap segment. Inflexion supports ambitious management teams in further developing and sustainably scaling high-growth companies. In the course of the acquisition, the previously independently managed business units are being strategically merged. This realignment and the group's strong innovative power create new growth opportunities to further expand its market position as a leading investment platform. Flexibility meets team spirit; once a week, we are on-site in Munich, Berlin, or Karlsruhe.
