DWS Group will serve as a long-term financing partner for the deal, committing a low- to mid-double-digit million euro investment via a Restricted Tier 1 capital instrument. This hybrid capital injection aligns with DWS’s broader strategy to expand its footprint in the institutional insurance market and alternative investment sectors.
Dr. Stefan Hoops, CEO of DWS Group, highlighted the move as a targeted entry into run-off platforms, noting that the firm’s investment expertise will be leveraged to enhance outcomes for Frankfurter Leben’s policyholders. While the specific financial terms of the acquisition remain confidential, the merger underscores a continued trend of consolidation within the German life insurance landscape, positioning Frankfurter Leben as a primary specialist in long-term portfolio management.
