Investors · International
Fox Capital represents foreign companies and investors in their search for acquisition targets in Germany – for company acquisitions (M&A) as well as real estate and portfolios. Focus: investors from the USA, the UK and Canada.
Buyers from abroad looking to acquire in Germany often face the same hurdles: many Mittelstand companies and properties are never marketed publicly, conversations with owners take place in German and follow their own conventions, and without a local presence direct access is missing.
We act as your local representative: we refine the search profile, identify and discreetly approach suitable targets, attend meetings on site and support the process through to closing. Fox Capital always acts on behalf of the investor and never as a buyer itself.
