Johannes Baier, a founding partner at Rohde Baier, and Aurelia Seidlhofer, Mergermarket’s Munich-based senior correspondent, join Dealcast host Julie-Anna Needham to discuss the emergence of search funds in DACH.

Topics include:

• Why these funds can offer more flexibility and tailor-made solutions for investors over typical structures like private equity;
• Why search funds are gaining popularity in DACH, particularly in Germany's Mittelstand (export-focused SMEs);
• The outlook for the emerging category as banks become more familiar with financing these transactions;
• The exit timelines and typical return expectations for investors and entrepreneurs involved in search funds.

All this and more in this week’s Dealcast.
