DWS Group and Tikehau Capital have agreed to enter into a strategic alliance, deepening their relationship following Tikehau’s participation in the initial public offering of DWS in March 2018. With the agreement, the two asset managers aim to identify and develop various business opportunities.
“This is an important alliance aligned fully to our ambition to expand our presence further in the Alternatives asset class, an area where we see sharply increasing interest from clients,” says Nicolas Moreau, CEO and Chairman of the Executive Board of DWS Group. “We look forward to working closely with Tikehau Capital to the benefit of our clients, bringing together our complementary skills and expertise in alternative investing.”
“With this strategic alliance, we are creating a framework to deliver significant added-value based on our respective expertise,” says Antoine Flamarion, co-founder of Tikehau Capital. “It shows how meaningful it was to participate in DWS’s IPO. We are working closely on the implementation of our respective growth strategies and on additional initiatives.”
