KKR opens Frankfurt office

KKR said the move confirms its long-standing commitment to Germany and strengthens its presence in continental Europe. The office will cover all KKR investment activities but will have a specific focus on PE and growth equity investments.

Ollig joined KKR in 2008 and has led numerous European investments for the firm, including Wild Flavors, Cognita, WMF, Hertha BSC, Hensoldt and most recently the pending acquisition of Unilever's plant-based spreads business. 

KKR's other EMEA offices are in London, Dublin, Paris, Madrid, Luxembourg, Dubai and Riyadh. The GP is currently investing from its €3.3bn KKR European Fund IV, which held a final close in December 2015 and was 50% deployed as of June 2017.
