Finatem has bought a 40% stake in FMW, an Austrian manufacturer of industrial plants, from private equity house Hannover Finanz and FMW’s management.

Hannover Finanz held a 68% stake before Finatem's investment. FMW's management owned 32%. Hannover Finanz, which originally invested in 2006, and Finatem now hold a 40% stake each. The management of FMW holds 20% of the shares.

The investment was made in FMW's existing holding company. Finatem drew capital from its third fund Finatem III, 66% of which has yet to be committed. This is the fund's first investment in Austria's industrial sector.

It builds 90% of its plants outside of Austria, with three quarters of the plants located outside of Europe. The company generates €75m in revenues, according to its website.
