Company

A firm built slowly, on purpose

Borromin Capital Management was founded on a simple conviction: that the businesses most worth investing in are the ones built over decades, not quarters. What began as a small advisory practice has grown, deliberately and without haste, into a firm trusted by family-owned companies across the German mid-market.

Our office

Rooted in Frankfurt's Westend

Our office sits in a quiet stretch of Frankfurt's Westend, a district defined by the same qualities we look for in the companies we back: solidity, restraint, and a sense of having been built to endure. We have never seen the need to move.

Our history

Two decades in brief

  1. 2003

    Founded in Frankfurt

    Borromin was founded by a small group of investment professionals with a shared background in corporate finance, united by the belief that mid-sized German companies were underserved by the capital markets of the time.

  2. 2009

    First succession mandate

    In the aftermath of the financial crisis, we completed our first succession financing mandate for a third-generation manufacturing business in Hesse, establishing the discipline that would define our practice for years to come.

  3. 2014

    Expansion of the investment team

    As demand for our approach grew, we expanded our investment team and formalized our sector focus across industrial manufacturing, specialty logistics, and business services.

  4. 2019

    Twenty-fifth mandate completed

    We marked our twenty-fifth completed mandate, a milestone that reflected steady, compounding trust built one relationship at a time rather than rapid, opportunistic growth.

  5. Today

    A steady, independent practice

    Borromin remains independently owned by its partners. We continue to work with a deliberately limited number of companies at any given time, so that every mandate receives the attention it deserves.

How we are organized

A small team, deliberately

We have chosen to remain a small, senior team rather than scale headcount for its own sake. Every mandate is led directly by a partner from first conversation to closing, and remains their responsibility long after the transaction is complete.

  • Partner-led, always

    No mandate is handed off to junior staff after the first meeting.

  • A limited number of mandates

    We take on only what our team can genuinely attend to.
