Frank Seehaus possesses exceptional analytical skills – not only when he is playing chess. He has few peers when it comes to delving deeply into numbers and establishing the facts. No issue is too complex, especially when it comes to questioning and understanding an organization’s functions, processes and statistics. The portfolio companies aren’t alone in benefiting from his exactitude. Hiking in mountain air sharpens the senses; complex transactions are also safe in his hands. For example, he paved the way for the successful exits of Elite Partner, Holiday Check, OnVista and Zooplus.
