Max Kruse, 58, Senior Investment Manager with many years of experience within industrial agricultural projects, breweries and transport.
Max Kruse primarily assists project companies in Eastern Europe, West Africa and Southeast Asia.
“I am lawyer and a self-taught lorry mechanic. In my job that is actually not a bad combination; it is useful to know how a small business is run and to be acquainted with the values behind a family owned business”, says Senior Investment Manager Max Kruse, who for many years has had the world as his work place and who grew up in a family owned firm of haulage contractors.
“In my job it is especially gratifying that together with our partners we can create development through investments abroad and thereby secure jobs and increase income – and at the same time the funds acquire a return on investment which enables us to invest in new projects without the State having to continuously supply the funds with new capital injections. A large part of my job consists of negotiating and finalising the projects in the best manner - for all parties, - whether it is projects which have sidetracked for one reason or another, or projects which have developed satisfactorily.
Employment with the FundsIn 1981-1984 as Investment Manager and again from 1990 as Department Manager and Head of the Regional offices in Malaysia and Poland.
