Living our commitment
Consistently committed.
In everything we do.
For us, commitment and responsibility mean getting involved in areas above and beyond investment decisions. Our goal in cofounding groups such as the Initiative deutsche Infrastruktur e.V. (IDI) and in our active membership of the Long-Term Infrastructure Investors Association (LTIIA) is to support German infrastructure. Together, we are improving the framework for private retirement capital and, by doing so, also creating assets for the future.
IDI – Initiative deutsche Infrastruktur e.V. is an independent platform that aims to promote the German economy’s international competitiveness and hence take social responsibility. It supports a partnership-based approach between policymakers, the public, and investors. Members include representatives of German pension schemes and from the worlds of politics, associations, and business. Palladio’s former Managing Partner Michael Rieder was a member of the IDI’s board in the years since it was founded in 2019 until his death in 2024
Di4 promotes involvement in digital infrastructure, investments, innovation, and industry by bringing together investors, the sector, and other stakeholder groups. Our partner Alexander Krater represents the investor perspective on the Di4 board.
As a member of the BAI e.V., we work to help professional investors in Germany diversify their investments better and more easily by investing in alternative assets, with a key goal being to safeguard long-term retirement provision in the country. Dr. Jurgita Baur and Barbara Treusch are active members of the BAI’s Sustainable Finance & ESG working group.
Our history
We started thinking about tomorrow yesterday.
The history of Palladio Partners began in 2012 with the real pioneering spirit of its two founders, Michael Rieder and Dr. Bernd Kreuter.
Right from the start, our core values included our determination to remain independent, our sense of responsibility, and our clear commitment to doing business respectfully and transparently.
Where did the company’s name come from?
Our role model is the Renaissance architect Andrea Palladio. We find his clear architectural style and client-oriented approach inspiring.
