Nexum Group AG, a high-growth residential real estate developer based in Munich, announced the appointment of Sebastian Holl to its Management Board as Chief Financial Officer (CFO). In this role, Holl will oversee the company's finance function, financing activities, and capital markets strategy, joining CEO Philipp von Erffa and Chief People & Legal Officer Claudia Vucak on the Management Board.
Holl brings 30 years of experience in the financial and capital markets industry, having held positions at leading U.S. investment banks including Merrill Lynch and Goldman Sachs, as well as at Baader Bank, where as Head of Corporate Broking he supported numerous companies in accessing international institutional investors. Having conducted more than 1,000 roadshows and advised on transactions totaling more than EUR 1 billion, he has built an extensive network among small- and mid-cap investors across Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom.
Dr. Johannes von Bismarck, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Nexum Group AG, commented: “With Sebastian Holl, we are gaining a proven corporate finance and capital markets expert with a first-class investor network. He brings not only more than 30 years of experience in international capital markets, but also a strong track record in supporting growth companies on their path to institutional investors and family offices. His appointment marks an important milestone for the planned scaling of Nexum Group and supplements a Management Board that is exceptionally well positioned in both breadth and depth to drive the Company’s next phase of growth with focus and determination.”
Sebastian Holl, CFO of Nexum Group AG, said: “Nexum Group addresses two key challenges in the residential real estate market: project financing and the creation of an attractive product for both investors and home seekers. The business model is consistently designed around a reduced risk profile, with a focus on projects with advanced building rights, short project durations, and efficient capital rotation. This leads to faster turnover, stronger cash flows, and, as a result, structurally greater attractiveness for all capital partners. I look forward to shaping the next chapter of this growth story together with the team.”
The appointment comes as Nexum Group positions itself for scaling. The company's business model is distinct from traditional project developers, focusing on rapid implementation, capital turnover, and scalability, supported by data-driven systems. With a current deal pipeline comprising a development volume of over one billion euros, the company aims to capitalize on its strategy. Holl's expertise in capital markets is expected to be instrumental in attracting institutional investors and family offices, which is critical for the company's planned expansion. His track record in corporate broking and investor relations aligns with Nexum's goal to reduce risk and accelerate project timelines, typically shortening project durations to 15 to 30 months. This efficiency allows for faster turnover and stronger cash flows, making the company more attractive to capital partners.
The strategic importance of this appointment is underscored by the company's focus on Germany's top-7 cities, where it acquires residential development projects with existing building permits or near-term approval eligibility. By leveraging Holl's network and experience, Nexum Group is better positioned to secure the financing needed to drive its growth. For more information, visit www.nexum-group.de.
