Wird Moonfare irgendwann noch profitabel? Mit Steffen Pauls
Ex-KKR-Deutschlandchef über Wachstumspläne und die Demokratisierung der privaten Kapitalmärkte Als langjähriger Deutschlandchef von KKR kennt Steffen Pauls das Private Equity Business in- und auswendig.

„In schwierigen Marktphasen aufgelegte Private Equity-Fonds erwirtschaften höhere Renditen“ #70 mit Margareta McConnell
Investitionen in privat geführte, nicht börsennotierte Unternehmen – Private Equity – locken mit langfristig höheren Renditen als traditionelle Aktienmärkte. Das gelte gerade in der aktuellen Marktphase mit schwacher Konjunktur, erhöhter Inflation und gestiegenen Zinsen. „Gerade in schwierigen Marktphasen aufgelegte Private-Equity-Fonds sind interessant“, sagt Margareta McConnell, Head of DACH von Moonfare, einer digitalen Plattform, die Privatanlegern Zugang zu ausgesuchten Private-Equity-Fonds bietet. Denn Private-Equity-Investoren können derzeit Firmenanteile zu niedrigeren Bewertungen erwerben und durch Unterstützung im operativen Geschäft einen Mehrwert erzielen.
