DBAG funds

DBAG funds pool the assets of German and international institutions – pension funds, funds of funds, banks, foundations, insurance companies or family offices. These assets constitute the largest part of our capital base. The DBAG funds invest on their own account. The contractual terms at which they do so are aligned to the principles found in the private equity sector.

Deutsche Beteiligungs AG currently advises the assets of more than 60 investors in seven private equity funds. This includes the assets of the funds that are presently investing: DBAG Fund VIII and DBAG ECF IV.

Each of the DBAG funds consists of several entities to account for country-specific and regulatory requirements, among other things. Investments by members of the DBAG investment team are also made through separate entities. The funds invest together with Deutsche Beteiligungs AG and the members of the investment team at a contractually fixed co-investment ratio for each fund. Co-investments by DBAG alongside the funds are also made via a separate entity in each case. This entity invests at the same terms and in the same instruments. Thus, the investment ratio between DBAG and the other investors is fixed for the lifetime of a fund. This structure ensures an identity of interest between the investors in the funds and DBAG with its shareholders.

We maintain a close, regular dialogue with our investors.

Three questions for Sigrid Rosemeyer

They are clearly satisfied with how we put their capital to work in the precedessor funds. Investors consider it important that their capital is invested as agreed at the start of a fund’s term, which, after all, is at least ten years. For example, they expect that we will invest within the agreed period and will achieve the returns that were envisaged and that the fund will unvaryingly adhere to its investment strategy.

For regulatory reasons, only professional investors can become partners in the funds. Nearly all investors have an extensive programme for commitments to private equity funds – regularly investing, for example, in funds focused on certain geographical regions, sectors, company sizes and investment types. To limit the number of investors in an individual fund, a minimum amount may be specified that each investor must commit.

This depends very much on the investment progress of the funds from which investments are currently being made. DBAG Fund VIII made its first investments in September 2020 and we expect the investment period to last about four years.
