THE IDEAL BOARD OF DIRECTORS FOR
THE ASSET MANAGER

In most cases, the board of directors (BoD) is elected from the closest circle of the founders, owners or from the ranks of the employees. This can lead to conflicts of interest, a false sense of security or even industry blindness.
In the case of startups, investors and the founding core team often make up the board of directors or take on this function themselves. Ideal investors are those who come from the industry themselves and also provide the startup with know-how and a network.
The Board of Directors is an important and valuable partner for the management, which monitors, promotes and ideally also complements it.
We are looking for people with specialist skills and experience that are of benefit to the company. For example, creative board members can provide support in the area of marketing & sales, IT specialists in the digitalization process, or lawyers in compliance and regulatory issues can make a valuable contribution.
For a start-up with a young founding team, for example, an experienced industry expert can be a valuable door opener or credible negotiating partner. Ideally, the board of directors should be composed of different complementary aspects and competences.

The crucial questions are

  • Which competences bring us closer to our goals?
  • Where do we still have deficits?
  • Is the existing corporate governance sufficient?
Only when a company knows the missing competencies does it know which piece of the puzzle is missing. A puzzle piece that covers as much white space as possible with new competencies and does not overlap with others.
The board member you are looking for must meet many requirements. For example, he or she should be well versed in IT as well as finance, know English and Spanish, and have experience with company takeovers. As a rule, no one can meet all the requirements, but as close as possible would be ideal.
