Mr. Gress focused on the evaluation of (a) the target’s competitive positioning within its industry and the identification of profitable growth opportunities based on the target’s commercial and operational core capabilities and (b) asset integrity / manufacturing plant condition (incl. the assessment of potential environmental liabilities, in particular soil and groundwater as well as EHS compliance) and (c) future requirements for maintenance and growth CapEx investments.

Mr. Gress quickly became a trusted advisor of the deal team and a valuable sparring partner of the various consulting firms working for us due to his sharp analytical rigor, his profound industry expertise resulting from his very successful career at BASF and not least his ability to translate technical data into strategic insight and actionable, pragmatic and solution-oriented recommendations.
