Potential scenarios at the time of acquisition:
- Succession planning
- Spin-off from corporations
- Turnaround / restructuring
- No start-up or growth financing
Dimensional criterions:
- Profitable enterprises, ideally with an EBIT of CHF 0.5–5 million
- Add-on acquisitions to existing wce capital companies may be more modest in scale.

- Additional acquisitions to portfolio companies can be made worldwide.
