Digitizing, decarbonizing, and innovating health are some common investment themes for this area. Directly investing in businesses provides family offices with control, potentially creates value, and strengthens their portfolios through wealth preservation.

German family offices are expanding their international investments into sectors such as high-tech, healthcare, renewable infrastructures, and real estate in high-growth countries/regions.
