“Even though we were unable to coordinate events for our employees to show their support in person due to the pandemic, we still felt it important to make a contribution to these organizations that tirelessly serve our communities,” commented Dr. Bernd Türk, CEO of HQ Capital.

Since its launch in 2017, HQ Capital Gives Back! initiatives have focused on partnerships and support for organizations meeting the needs of underprivileged and vulnerable populations in our local communities. In line with this global theme, each office has generously donated to the following organizations:

In Frankfurt, we continue our support for Children for a better World (https://www.children.de/). Children for a better World is a donation-financed children’s aid organization based in Munich. It was founded by Gabriele Quandt and Florian Langenscheidt in 1994 to fight childhood poverty and create opportunities for children and youth to support their own communities. The initiative also involves children participating directly in multiple fields of charitable work, enabling them to take responsibility for their lives, their future, and the society they live in. During the pandemic, Children for a better World established an emergency fund to provide food vouchers, play packages, lessons at home, and digital tutoring to serve the 4,500 children and families associated with the program. HQ Capital’s donation will support this initiative and goes directly to a project for children in need in Frankfurt. The team previously supported Children for a better World with a social day as part of HQ Capital Gives Back! in 2019.

In New York, we selected the Food Bank for New York City (https://www.foodbanknyc.org/). Food Bank for New York City is the first organization we supported with our HQ Capital Gives Back! initiative and continues to be an essential hunger-relief program serving New York City. During this pandemic, Food Bank has taken proactive steps to safely provide food and other resources for the New Yorkers who rely on them. Our donation will be used to provide emergency food to vulnerable New Yorkers who may be quarantined, along with those impacted by the economic downturn.

In Hong Kong, we selected Oxfam Hong Kong (https://www.oxfam.org.hk/en). Oxfam Hong Kong dates back to 1976 when volunteers joined together to open a shop for second-hand goods in Hong Kong and raised funds for anti-poverty projects around the world. Over the course of the COVID-19 pandemic, Oxfam has reached over 46,000 people in Hong Kong and over 14.3 million around the world, providing access to clean water, distributing masks, hand cleansing supplies and other relief items to street cleaners, the elderly, the visually impaired, those with mental illness, low-income families, and ethnic minorities. Our donation will be used to help keep Oxfam’s inventory well stocked to protect the front-line workers and these vulnerable communities during this difficult time.

HQ Capital will continue to support its local communities through our HQ Capital Gives Back! initiative. In addition to the corporate donations per region, the team has also made private contributions and is in close contact with the charitable organizations offering support.

ACF II will build a portfolio consisting of 30 to 35 companies primarily in North America that are diversified by sector, strategy, and general partner.

HQ Capital had previously announced that it was evaluating strategic options for its real estate business with a desire to find new partners to support the next phase of growth of the business and strengthen the international investor base for subsequent real estate investment funds. While a number of renowned investors expressed serious interest, the combination of Concord Pacific and HB Management was ultimately selected as the ideal partner for the business based on their significant experiences in large scale mixed-use and multifamily real estate, with established complementary businesses and an international reach spanning the United States, Canada, United Kingdom and Asia as well as their similar, high-quality family office investor base and strong reputations.

“With the transfer of the majority of its real estate business, HQ Capital continues to shape its profile as private equity specialist of HQ”, comments Dr Joachim Faber, chair of the supervisory board of HQ Holding.

We have been looking for the right opportunity and the right partner to enter the real estate fund management business. HQ Capital Real Estate’s stellar coast-to-coast track record and impeccable support from both Germany and New York management teams attracted us to this strategic alliance. HB Management has also been a great partner of ours in the United States since 2018. We are excited about another wonderful endeavour with HB with their expertise in the residential multifamily business. Our vision is to collaborate with the firm’s well-established team and to explore new horizons in multiple markets”, says David Ju, Concord Pacific

“HB Management is very pleased with the opportunity to strategically invest with our close partner, Concord Pacific, by bringing new strategic resources to HQ Capital Real Estate’s multifamily investment platform. The firm brings a tremendous track record and new opportunities for HB and Concord to diversify their investment initiative, and to expand its capital horizons. This is a true win-win”, adds Jon Breiner from HB Management.

The completion of this transaction is expected to occur in the next months and is subject to customary approvals. The parties agreed not to disclose further details of the transaction. HQ Capital Real Estate will continue to build on its proven investment strategy focused on partnering with high-quality apartment developers and selectively acquiring existing multifamily properties with significant value creation potential in key growth markets across the United States.

Gestartet mit zwei Mitarbeitern 1989 in New York, hat sich das Private Equity Geschäft der Harald Quandt Gruppe in drei Jahrzehnten zu einer globalen Plattform mit über 90 Mitarbeitern und Standorten in USA, Europa und Asien entwickelt. Seit 1989 legte HQ Capital 30 globale Private Equity Fonds auf, tätigte rund 600 Primary-, Secondary-, und Co-Investments und investierte über sein weltweites Netzwerk an Partnern in rund 7.000 Unternehmen.

Seit 1989 hat sich Private Equity zu einer globalen Assetklasse entwickelt und ist stark gewachsen. Analysen von HQ Capital zeigen, dass die Anzahl an Private Equity Firmen von 273 im Jahr 1990 auf 7.189 in 2018 weltweit gestiegen ist, was einem durchschnittlichen jährlichen Zuwachs von 12% entspricht. Das investierte Volumen stieg im selben Zeitraum signifikant von $13 Mrd. auf $1.479 Mrd. – ein Plus von 18% p.a.

„Als einer der Pioniere in Europa hat sich HQ Capital über alle Marktzyklen hinweg als fester und verlässlicher Partner für Investoren etabliert. Mit seiner 30-jährigen globalen Expertise und dem Netzwerk zu den besten Managern sind wir in der aufstrebenden Assetklasse Private Equity hervorragend positioniert. Wir sind stolz auf diese Erfolgsgeschichte“, so Gabriele Quandt, Gesellschafterin der Harald Quandt Gruppe.

Wie Analysen von HQ Capital zeigen, entwickelte sich Private Equity als Assetklasse seit 2000 entlang der drei zentralen Regionen Nordamerika, Europa und Asien überdurchschnittlich und steigerte den %-Anteil an öffentlicher Marktkapitalisierung kontinuierlich. Treiber für das Wachstum ist hierbei die relative Attraktivität und Stabilität der Anlageklasse Private Equity über alle Marktzyklen und Regionen hinweg.

In Europa stieg die relative Größe von Private Equity gegenüber den öffentlichen Kapitalmärkten seit der Finanzkrise stark an und liegt heute auf einem vergleichbaren Niveau zu Nordamerika. Dort bleibt Private Equity auf hohem Niveau, mit zusätzlichem Wachstum seit 2014. Spitzenreiter im Wachstum ist der asiatische Private Equity Markt, der mittlerweile rund 25% des weltweiten Private Equity Marktes ausmacht.

„Private Equity gehört mittlerweile in jedes Vermögensportfolio. Es bietet breite Diversifikation und unabhängig vom Niedrigzinsumfeld oder politischen Unwägbarkeiten stabile, überdurchschnittliche Renditen.“, so Dr. Bernd Türk, CEO von HQ Capital. „Da der Anteil von Private Equity an den öffentlichen Kapitalmärkten im Schnitt bei gerade einmal 5% liegt, sehen wir in dem Markt weiteres, attraktives Wachstumspotenzial.“

More than 30 employees attended the event, hosted by Pajama Program, a national organization dedicated to providing new pajamas and books to vulnerable children in support of a caring bedtime ritual and good night’s sleep. The Reading Party began with introductions and then the children spent an hour reading with their adult “reading buddies.” At the end of the Reading Party, the children each selected a book of their choice to take home and were presented with a new pair of pajamas, specially wrapped and labeled with their name. Each child was given a round of applause to encourage their participation in reading activities.

“As a parent of teenage children, the Reading Party brought back memories of reading to my own children. Knowing the importance of this activity made the experience especially meaningful,” said Chris Lawrence, Managing Director at HQ Capital. “The event was well-run, and the staff is extremely devoted and caring. It was truly rewarding to have contributed to the impact the Pajama Program is making in the lives of these kids.”

Pajama Program was founded in 2001 by Genevieve Piturro after she was asked by a young girl living in a shelter, “What are pajamas?” Piturro regularly read to children at a local shelter and was shocked to realize how many did not have pajamas to change into or a book to read before bedtime. She started the program with the goal of helping to transform bedtime into a loving ritual for children living in difficult circumstances. The program now serves children in every state and has delivered more than 3 million pajamas and over 2 million books.

“The number of employees who participated in the Reading Party is a testament to HQ Capital’s commitment to giving back to the community,” said Jeremy Katz, Co-Head of Real Estate at HQ Capital. “We are proud to have partnered with the Pajama Program and to have supported their mission of providing new pajamas and books to children who might not otherwise have them. We are continually looking for opportunities in which we can make a positive social impact.”

About Pajama Program

At Pajama Program, we understand deeply how many children in this country don’t have a stable home life, or a home at all. To these children — often abandoned, neglected, living in shelters or temporary housing — we pledge our unwavering commitment to the inherent right of every one of them to have a loving bedtime and restful good night as the start of a positive, empowering good day. New pajamas and books are magical gifts that we collect and give, with love, to vulnerable children. They inspire them, teaching them how to use imagination and creativity to change their lives in the moment, and every day. They are the building blocks of confidence, trust and love. Further information can be found at www.pajamaprogram.org.

Malteser Social Day is an annual nationwide event hosted by the Order of Malta in Germany, where companies and their employees spend a day giving back to communities in need. Malteser is a catholic relief organization with the long-term objective of alleviating poverty through hands-on, active and on-going volunteer work. With their “Social Day,” the Malteser encourages companies to free up their employees for one day to take part in various social projects within their communities.

As part of this year’s Malteser Social Day, the HQ Capital team helped to refresh the appearance of the Georg-Büchner-Gymnasium (GBG) in Bad Vilbel by painting its corridors. GBG is a general education and performance-oriented high school of the Wetteraukreis that focuses on helping its students to be well-rounded, both academically and socially. The school offers a wide range of opportunities for children from sports, music and vocational studies, to leisure and social activities that promote the importance of giving back to your communities. This volunteer service was a great opportunity for HQ Capital to reward the school’s good work by helping prepare for their upcoming 50th anniversary, while exemplifying the benefits of team work for the students.

Oliver Schlümer, Director at HQ Capital, commented, “Participation in the Social Day was successful in many ways. First and foremost, we were able to help children by beautifying their school. In addition, it was a great teambuilding event that allowed us to get to know colleagues even better. Special thanks go to the headmaster of the Georg-Büchner-Gymnasium for the delicious food and the Malteser for the organization of the day.”

Daniela Hufnagel, IT & Office Management at HQ Equita and the event organizer added, “Our first Social Day experience was very rewarding. The pre-planning with both GBG and the Malteser was seamless and enjoyable. The enthusiasm and gratitude of the school management and teachers for supporting them in their project helped to motivate and energize our team. The event was fun and has helped to bring us closer as colleagues and teammates. I would encourage other companies to consider participating in the next Malteser Social Day.”

HQ Capital is committed to supporting social initiatives around the world. Its New York and Hong Kong offices also participated in community service days earlier this year. Georg Wunderlin, CEO of HQ Capital, explained, “As part of our HQ Capital Gives Back! initiative, we will continue to seek out opportunities to share the same professionalism and dedication that we bring to our firm with those in need, through team work and community engagement.”
