1 Segment information
The Group Executive Board is the Group’s chief operating decision maker and reviews the results from a product-related as well as a geographical perspective. As a result of the sale of Bank am Bellevue, Bellevue Group is focusing exclusively on the Asset Management business unit and has therefore reported only one reportable segment since December 31, 2019. The segment consists of the operating business units Bellevue Asset Management, StarCapital and Bellevue Private Markets. The offering includes a broad-based range of investment funds as well as investment solutions for institutional, intermediary and private clients. The segment’s investment philosophy is characterized by a purely active management approach. Bellevue Asset Management has a clear focus on managing equity portfolios for selected sector and regional strategies, based on a fundamental and research-driven stock picking approach («bottom up»). In contrast, StarCapital AG pursues a holistic asset management approach based on quantitative and experience-driven investment approaches with pronounced anti-cyclicality. Its well-diversified product offering in the areas of asset-managed strategies, global bond and equity strategies, and multi-asset class solutions thus exhibits a high degree of complementarity. Bellevue Private Markets specializes in developing exclusive investment opportunities in unlisted companies for its investor group. In addition, it acts as investment advisor for private equity funds. This represents a further diversification of the investment universe with low correlation to the capital markets. All three business units operate in similar regions. Group Management monitors the results of the three business units both on a consolidated basis and separately.
