Reorganization of a Company’s Structure

In many German publicly-listed corporations, substantial shares remain in family possession. The majority shares of some are still in the possession of the founding family. When preparing the transfer to the next generation, the release of shares can come into consideration.

Although a placement on the stock exchange with receptive markets is a possibility, a broad public dispersion of shares is not always desired as, for example, market volumes could be too narrow.

In other cases, there is a need to avoid worrying customers, suppliers and employees. Also, a broad placement with anonymous institutions whose investment policy may be uncertain may not be wanted.

In situations like these, General Capital Group may employ equity capital and make a contribution to the security of future business success in the role of a long-term entrepreneurial investor.
