Rautenberg & Company strengthens its partnership with Britta Hornung-Schweter and continues to expand integrated service offering

Düsseldorf/Frankfurt, 14 July 2023 – The strategy and corporate finance advisory firm Rautenberg & Company has appointed Britta Hornung-Schweter, a renowned corporate finance expert, as Partner. Hornung-Schweter becomes the fifth partner of the advisory boutique, which was founded nine years ago and has since continued to grow. Having joined the firm in 2017, she will continue to expand the corporate finance unit and will drive the firm’s co-investment activities.

With the appointment of Britta Hornung-Schweter to the partnership, Rautenberg & Company continues to strengthen its integrated business model. The advisory firm has grown into one of the leading boutiques in the technology sector, largely due to its focus on transaction-related services, with further drive expected to come from the corporate finance and M&A service line. Founding Partner Arndt Rautenberg gives a positive assessment of the firm’s development, noting: “It is with great pleasure and some pride that we announce the promotion of Britta Hornung-Schweter, an outstanding colleague, to our partnership. She brings many years of experience in corporate finance and M&A but has also been instrumental for the success of several value creation mandates. Britta enjoys an excellent reputation in the industry, thanks to her highest professional standards, and will, without a doubt, further strengthen our integrated model.”

As a new member of the Rautenberg & Company management team, Britta Hornung-Schweter sees considerable potential for further growth. She highlights the benefit of the company's transaction-focused, integrated business model and comments: “I am excited to take on this new role. Our firm offers clients a significant and substantial advantage since we can support a transaction end-to-end in terms of both content and process – an integrated approach, with its clear focus on value creation and M&A. That sets us apart from many of our competitors in the market. We cover the entire range of advisory services, from the initiation of a deal and its execution to operational value creation, preparations for an exit and the sale process itself.”

Britta Hornung-Schweter, who joined the firm in 2017 from a Big-4 consultancy, has successfully advised on a multitude of deals and transaction-related projects with a focus on the digital infrastructure and business services sectors. Together with the firm’s founder Arndt Rautenberg and the three other partners Philipp v. Hochberg, Gero Steinroeder and Boris Herzog, Britta Hornung-Schweter will continue to strengthen the corporate finance business in particular. She will also drive the group’s co-investment activities via Rautenberg & Company Invest out of the Düsseldorf office.
