As the fund manager of a private equity fund investing in companies located in developing and emerging markets, you benefit from our in-depth expertise in funds and co-investment.
Reliability, speed and an understanding of structuring are crucial to your success. As a development finance institution we stand for dependability and long-term commitment. We also offer support for company analysis and for introduction of the leading environmental, social and corporate governance standards.
Our fund and structuring experts are here to advise and support you in developing your fund. As an active and successful co-investor, we can efficiently close capital gaps for your investments in portfolio companies or act as a sparring partner in relation to content. As a further example, in the environmental and social sphere we can take responsibility for certain areas of due diligence and implementation control.

Promotional programmes for funds
If we invest in your fund, we also offer support programmes for you and the companies that you finance. In this way we can co-finance various accompanying measures.
Business Support Services
The BSS programme aims to enhance the sustainability of funds and the companies in which they invest, with regard to their environmental and social commitment, and to promote good business practices. Areas in which BSS can be supportive include, for example, corporate governance, risk management, resource and energy efficiency, as well as further training for employees and suppliers.
We can also advise you in relation to other challenges. Together with you, we can develop solutions to boost the performance and positive development of the fund or the companies in which you invest.
Common topics for Business Support Services:
Advice on environmental and social management
We invest in funds that have a high-quality environmental and social management system. As a result, they should be able to identify risks in the environmental and social sphere and to control them specifically. If there is a need for advisory when introducing a system of this type, DEG can finance a portion of the costs.
Your challenge
We also offer you support with other challenges and develop individually tailored solutions in partnership with you and your company.
