Contentus Vermögensverwaltungs
Contentus Vermögensverwaltungs launched in 2012 when Mathias Gehrke, a former Associate Director at UBS Wealth Management, established an owner-managed, provider-independent financial advisory in Munich. The firm has since assembled a team of veteran portfolio managers, including former UBS Director Jürgen Hackl and 25‑year industry advisor Martina Rath, to serve German and European families directly. Co-investor entities NONO Familien KG and Friedrich & Winterfeld GmbH share the Widenmayerstrasse address, indicating a close operational alliance around shared deal infrastructure. Contentus structures its client portfolios across a broad opportunity set: fund-of-funds commitments, direct co-investments and SPVs, private credit, hedge funds, infrastructure, natural resources, real estate, and secondaries. The firm has confirmed positions in Digital Health, Healthcare Services, and FinTech — sectors it targets alongside applied AI/ML strategies — with geographic deployment concentrated in Europe and North America. The firm also holds ties to alternative assets such as the Roman Lipski 'Sophisticated' Collection and Amaranthine Books Limited Editions, suggesting an openness to passion-asset exposure inside family mandates. Contentus has been repeatedly recognized by Capital Magazine's Top Wealth Managers ranking, earning 4‑ to 5‑star ratings in both 'Balanced' and 'Opportunity-oriented' categories, and holds a V‑Check Sternesieger award as a top independent wealth manager in Germany. The firm operates exclusively from Munich and has not disclosed team headcount or aggregate assets under management. What structurally differentiates Contentus from a conventional private bank is its legal status as a pure-fee, provider-independent consultant — the firm does not manufacture or distribute its own financial products. This architecture, combined with the affiliation of sibling entity Contentus GmbH under Dirk Breitsameter, lets the firm pair investment management with integrated tax, legal, and insurance counsel under a single family-office roof.
