Mutares Management Board
Mutares operates a diversified international portfolio structured into five industry segments:
Automotive & Mobility
Engineering & Technology
Infrastructure & Special Industry
Goods & Services
Chemicals & Materials
Together, our group employs ~30,000 people worldwide
– driving transformation, growth, and long-term value creation across our global platform.
Mutares specializes in acquiring companies by identifying and unlocking existing market opportunities, focusing on value potential rather than a specific sector. Its portfolio therefore spans diverse industries and business models. Target companies typically show clear earnings improvement potential at the transaction stage, which can be realized within one to two years through strategic and operational optimization.
As part of the realignment, Mutares develops its investments both strategically and operationally, supporting them in investments, product development, sales, and the sustainable optimization of production until they become independent and profitable. This is followed by measures to drive organic growth.
In the optimization phase, Mutares acts as an active investor, developing flexible action plans rather than merely providing capital. It continuously supports portfolio companies in developing new business opportunities, including the regular review of add-on acquisitions to achieve growth targets through a focused buy-and-build approach.
Harvesting is the final step before the exit. After all development phases have been completed, the realization of the value potential of each individual investment is actively pursued in order to achieve a profitable exit. The target in this phase is a return of 7 to 10 times the invested capital.
