René Parmantier, chief executive of Close Brothers Seydler Bank, a mid-cap adviser, says the curbs are counter-productive. “In a world like this you have to team up globally. It is not that it affects our clients, but that it sends the wrong signal about Germany,” he says.

René Parmantier, chief executive of Close Brothers Seydler Bank, a mid-cap adviser in Frankfurt, says: “Our IPO pipeline looks good. The TMT [telecoms, media, technology] side is very strong and we also have two or three ‘old economy’ companies coming through.

Mr Parmantier contends that, while the focus on attracting business from emerging markets is welcome, Deutsche Börse could also do more for the German Mittelstand – the swathe of mid-sized, often family-owned companies that are the country’s economic backbone.

“I don’t see enough initiatives to help those companies come to the market,” he says, while acknowledging that sometimes such companies are reluctant to go public.

“More and more banks are coming into our sector of the market, but I think there is enough business for everyone. In these niche businesses, you have to invest a lot of time. I call it handcrafted banking,” says René Parmantier, chief executive officer of Close Brothers Seydler Bank, a mid-cap adviser.

Experts forecast that more and more Mittelstand companies will seek to replace bank financing with bonds as a consequence. “I think the high-yield segment will also pick up as an alternative to bank credit,” Mr Parmantier says.
