Alberto Forchielli is to splash two-thirds of 1 billion euros, made available by Mandarin Capital Partners private equity fund, to acquire German companies in a bid to fuel world economic growth.
In Shanghai, the Chinese government recently launched a fund of 50 billion Yuan – the equivalent of 6.3 billion euro – with which it aims to purchase overseas companies.
Any private equity firm wishing to compete with Mandarin Capital Partners in purchasing Medium Enterprises in Germany, or any other number of companies overseas, will need to rise to the occasion, since the indefatigable Forchielli is back in the game and has raised the stakes very high.
On 20 September 2012, in an exclusive interview, with The Bridge Magazine, Mr Forchielli, the company hunter, was very confident about targeting Germany’s ‘medium-sized firms’ sector.
He said:
“We have been the first foreign private equity fund to receive funds from China’s government in 2006, and we have been the first ever China outbound Fund. After six years of operation, we are still the largest Sino-European private equity fund; we have done nine investments; and we expect to earn money from each of them, which is unusual in the private equity industry. We enjoy a strong franchise with current investors, and many more investors, both in China and Europe, would like to join and bring further networking and business opportunities.”
The number one Chinese–Italian private equity fund is buying companies in Germany, not with money from the Eurozone, but from Beijing: this is where their uniqueness lies.
Mandarin Capital Partners’ management team has spotted the missing Sino- European tandem in private equity firms and is ready to exploit that loophole to make a difference in the ‘companies hunting’ sector.
Mandarin Capital Partners helps medium-sized companies to finance themselves towards faster growth.
Thanks to capital from the Far East, the pharmaceutical company Euticals quickly took over two companies and acquired a minority stake in a third and fourth.
Forchielli is targeting companies specialising in health, oil, gas, fashion, food and water.The companies should also hold an annual sale that varies between 80 to 200 million euros.
