Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at Bankhaus Ellwanger & Geiger?
The bank is led by Managing Directors Dr. Volker Gerstenmaier and Marcus Vitt, who oversee both the balance-sheet investment strategy and client co-investment decisions. The partnership structure means senior management has significant discretion over deal selection, rather than operating through a bureaucratic investment committee. Specific investment team headcount and delegation are not publicly detailed.
How does the bank source its investment opportunities?
Deal flow originates almost entirely from the bank's regional network in Baden-Württemberg. The bank has deep, multi-generational relationships with Mittelstand companies, real estate developers, and intermediaries in Swabia's industrial economy. This sourcing model is relationship-dependent and difficult for larger, more centralized institutions to replicate.
Does Bankhaus Ellwanger & Geiger participate in fund commitments or only direct deals?
The bank's known activity is concentrated in direct deals — real estate acquisitions, direct equity stakes in companies, and private credit transactions. There is no public evidence of a significant fund-of-funds program or commitments to external private equity managers. Its structure is built around sourcing and structuring investments itself.
