From entrepreneur to entrepreneur
UBH is an entrepreneur-led investment company with a focus on majority holdings in medium-sized companies.
Based on many years of experience both in the consulting business and in the management of our own investment portfolio, we are primarily involved in companies related to the German-speaking region (DACH region). In addition, we are also interested in the further development of our existing company portfolio in the context of international acquisitions.
The entrepreneurial team
Hans Christiansen and Dr. Ludwig Schmucker, worked in investment banking for a Hamburg private bank for fifteen years before founding UBH, where they held management functions in corporate finance. Their focus was on transaction-related advice (mergers & acquisitions) for medium-sized customers. Before that, both of them completed international business studies at the European Business School (ebs).
