New investment group launches
Markus Burkhard, Sebastian Kopsch and Cüneyt Türen have founded the Strotbek Group based in Engelberg. The group also includes a real estate investment and fund boutique.
Strotbek Group plans to focus on investment banking, trusted advisory, and real estate and corporate investments, according to a statement. It was founded by Markus M. Burkhard, Sebastian Kopsch and Cüneyt Türen.
Burkhard has worked in finance in the real estate industry for a good 20 years, including positions at UBS and the investment bank Valartis. He later founded an investment boutique, which he sold in 2021.
Kopsch was most recently Director and Partner of the Frankfurt-based M&A consultancy Eichenfels. Previously, he worked for HIH Hamburg Innovation Holding and the M&A boutique Falkensteg, among others. Before founding Strotbek, Cüneyt Türen also worked for Eichenfels, HIH Hamburg Innovation Holding and Falkensteg.
With their new company, the founders want to position themselves "as a sparring partner" for entrepreneurs, entrepreneurial families, family offices and private banks around the topics of wealth and taxes, corporate investments and real estate, as well as financing, IPOs and M&A, they add.
The group includes Strotbek Capital AG, based in Engelberg, Strotbek Advisory GmbH, based in Frankfurt am Main, and Strotbek Real Estate Investments AG, a real estate investment and fund boutique based in Switzerland and Liechtenstein.
The latter was founded as a joint venture with real estate developers Khaled Ezzedine and Daniel Köhler. It is to position itself on the market as an independent investment and fund boutique with a focus on AI-based real estate fund solutions. (ah)
