Access is decisive

In private equity, success is concentrated among a small group of managers with a clear strategy, strong networks and consistent results. Their funds are in high demand and often oversubscribed – yet with ZUWAX you gain access.

ZUWAX offers a portfolio of more than ten target funds, which reduces risk

Professional terms

Via a tax-transparent fund of funds you invest side by side with the institutional clients of our partner HQ Capital, the private-equity arm of the Harald Quandt family. You benefit from the same terms as very large investors.

Strategic diversification

Your investment is allocated to around 15 reviewed target funds, which we combine into an optimally coordinated portfolio. This reduces risks, avoids overlaps and specifically exploits market cycles.

Efficient use of capital

You subscribe to newly launched funds and additionally acquire interests in existing funds at discounts on the secondary market. This not only increases your return potential, but also ensures that your capital is invested more quickly and returned earlier.

Successful

Behind your portfolio stands an expert team that has for more than 30 years invested from New York, Miami, Singapore, Hong Kong and Bad Homburg with leading private-equity managers. It is distinguished by a stringent investment process and independence.
