Halder invests in established SMEs: profitable companies with €20 million to €400 million of turnover. Within a valuation bracket of up to €300 million Halder normally takes a majority stake, usually through a management buy-out.

You can be successful in many different areas but the crucial factor is a strong competitive position. Market leaders and successful niche players tend to have skilled management, a sustainable competitive advantage in their industry and a positive track record.

A strong focus on these criteria is the key to ensuring that MBO managers and Halder achieve their common objective of increasing the value of their company in the long run.
