Christian Hecker, Co-Founder of Trade Republic: ”Long-term wealth creation is more than just an ETF savings plan. It’s about the combination of various asset classes. Now, we are growing Trade Republic from brokerage into wealth management. Everyone in Europe shall have the opportunity to invest like the very wealthy — simple, secure, and at the lowest possible cost. Following our expansion into banking, with checking accounts and cards, this is the most significant milestone since our founding. With Apollo and EQT, we have secured two of the most important Private Markets managers as strategic partners for our customers.”
Peter Beske Nielsen, Global Head of Private Wealth & Evergreen Solutions at EQT: “Today, most individual investors’ portfolios are limited to ETFs and shares of publicly listed companies – even though public markets only account for a fraction of the total investable economy. Through our partnership with Trade Republic, we are giving access to a global and diversified private markets portfolio via EQT’s proven strategies – an opportunity historically reserved for institutional investors.”
Veronique Fournier, Apollo’s Head of EMEA Global Wealth: “With this new partnership, combining Apollo’s expertise with the innovative power of Trade Republic, we are addressing a much broader set of investors across Europe. Together we are pleased to build on the continued democratization of private markets.”
