Generally speaking however, there is a causal relationship between the first guiding principle &#8220;openness&#8221; and the second one &#8220;fairness&#8221;. The understanding of BPE implies clarity in the assertion of one&#8217;s own interests without over-benefiting compared to the partner. The yardstick for this is a significant deviation from general market standards without an appropriate compensation. Here the connection with openness becomes clear again.<\/p>\n<p>The aim of BPE\u2019s partnership is to be a trustworthy, predictable partner for all relevant business partners. Business ethics and morals are constant companions in a business that is essentially characterised by trust on the investor side, but also on the seller and management side.<\/p>\n<p>The question &#8220;Would I like to explain the reasons for my behaviour or my arguments to all parties concerned?&#8221; is always used to objectify the subjective assessment of

By harnessing the advantages of digitalisation, those companies that are willing to embrace technological change can tap into above-average growth opportunities and further unlock their hidden potential.<\/p><p>Moreover, the societal shift towards an older population that is prevalent in Germany and other industrialised nations, in addition to an increase in per capita income is highly beneficial for the medical technology sector, the health care sector and those areas that focus on quality of life, education and leisure activities.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e2e0a00 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e2e0a00\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Examples from the BPE portfolio<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-0c0384b elementor-section-content-top elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"0c0384b\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;gradient&quot;,&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-a72f7a5\" data-id=\"a72f7a5\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6e9bfc08 elementor-align-justify elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"6e9bfc08\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bpe.de\/en\/karl-kemper\/\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"far fa-building\"><\/i>\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">KARL KEMPER<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-452cccd\" data-id=\"452cccd\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-250879f\" data-id=\"250879f\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-34632e2a elementor-align-justify elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"34632e2a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bpe.de\/en\/domilens\/\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"far fa-building\"><\/i>\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">DOMILENS<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b758488 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"b758488\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-621bd12c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"621bd12c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>3.

The international interdependence of production chains, as described by the term \u201cglobalisation\u201d, has also opened up considerable growth potential for German \u201dMittelstand\u201d companies. Those with a consistent internationalisation strategy benefit on two fronts: by opening up new markets (export orientation) and by exploiting comparative cost advantages by (partially) relocating the value chain to less wage-intensive countries.<\/p><p>The German \u201cMittelstand\u201d companies with their traditional R&amp;D strength and deep knowledge in innovative manufacturing processes could experience a renaissance, if they are able to successfully overcome the challenges of digital transformation. They will have to successfully utilise digital process transformation that increases efficiency to compensate any comparative cost disadvantages that may result from appropriate requirements for working conditions and environmental protection.<\/p><p>However, \u201cMittelstand\u201d companies still have potential for improvement in this respect. A study conducted by the University of Go\u0308ttingen in cooperation with the Institute for \u201cMittelstand\u201d companies Research (IfM), Bonn, has shown that (1) German \u201cMittelstand\u201d companies are already highly and increasingly active abroad, (2) and foreign involvement has a statistically significant positive effect on employment, sales growth and earnings. (3) However, they (still) generate a significantly higher share of value in their domestic market compared to large companies.<\/p><p>Additionally, German \u201cMittelstand\u201d companies face a considerable (pent-up) need to advance the use of digitalisation in management, administrative and production processes.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div

of a company, all documents that enable us to get a better insight into your company are helpful. Naturally, we are willing to sign a confidentiality agreement. Today, company websites usually provide a great deal of information and a good overview of a company&#8217;s field of business and its products. However, in order to assess a company successfully, it is important to learn about the company\u2019s past, present, and future earning\u2019s situation. Annual financial statements for past periods, ongoing reports such as monthly economic evaluations, as well as a corporate business plan for the current year and ideally for future periods are highly useful. Furthermore, we are interested in documents that allow us to draw conclusions about the special features and positioning of your company.<\/p><p>A document summarising the company as a whole and\/or the company strategy is helpful, if available. Please refer to our exemplary checklist to see how said document can be structured.<\/p><p>It goes without saying, however, that an initial meeting should take place before any sensitive information

been communicated to all involved parties. This is of particular importance concerning the sellers of the business and the incoming management as a future partner to BPE. On top, all relevant information must be passed on in a way that is not too specific or technical, but intelligible for everyone.<\/p><p>Openness is the basis for avoiding conflicts. This applies vis-a\u0300-vis the seller in (1) the planning of the takeover strategy, which is the essential basis for the decision-making process, as well as (2) the development of the acquired company. If the agreed upon strategy is strictly adhered to and the highest level of commitment and professionalism is maintained, a negative development may be more acceptable and understandable in a business with inherent risks if full openness dominates the relationship. It is the basis for trust for a respective partner. The same applies in relation to the company&#8217;s shareholdings and to be more exact, the partners involved.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-29be793a elementor-hidden-tablet elementor-hidden-phone\" data-id=\"29be793a\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-35220616 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"35220616\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-70ac943a\" data-id=\"70ac943a\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7b649088 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7b649088\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-6\">\n<div class=\"vc_column-inner\">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element \">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<p>Fairness is more difficult to define because it is inherently subjective and perceptions of it can be quite different. Generally speaking however, there is a causal relationship between the first guiding principle &#8220;openness&#8221; and the second one &#8220;fairness&#8221;. The understanding of BPE implies clarity in the assertion of one&#8217;s own interests without over-benefiting compared to the partner. The yardstick for this is a significant deviation from general market standards without an appropriate compensation. Here the connection with openness becomes clear again.<\/p>\n<p>The aim of BPE\u2019s partnership is to be a trustworthy, predictable partner for all relevant business partners. Business ethics and morals are constant companions in a business that is essentially characterised by trust on the investor side, but also on the seller and management side.<\/p>\n<p>The question &#8220;Would I like to explain the reasons for my behaviour or my arguments to all parties concerned?&#8221; is always used to objectify the subjective assessment of &#8220;fairness&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, these principles apply not only to the way in which business is conducted but also, more generally, to the nature of the business that it is conducted in.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div

Naturally, we are willing to sign a confidentiality agreement. Today, company websites usually provide a great deal of information and a good overview of a company&#8217;s field of business and its products. However, in order to assess a company successfully, it is important to learn about the company\u2019s past, present, and future earning\u2019s situation. Annual financial statements for past periods, ongoing reports such as monthly economic evaluations, as well as a corporate business plan for the current year and ideally for future periods are highly useful. Furthermore, we are interested in documents that allow us to draw conclusions about the special features and positioning of your company.<\/p><p>A document summarising the company as a whole and\/or the company strategy is helpful, if available. Please refer to our exemplary checklist to see how said document can be structured.<\/p><p>It goes without saying, however, that an initial meeting should take place before any sensitive information
