What REM CAPITAL does

REM CAPITAL AG is a Stuttgart-headquartered financial advisory firm specialising in securing public subsidies, promotional loans, and corporate financing for German companies. Founded in 2009 and operating as a wholly-owned subsidiary of publicly listed Hypoport SE, the firm serves mid-market and enterprise clients across four interlocking practice areas: sustainability and climate neutrality financing, innovation and R&D funding, real estate financing, and investment/corporate financing. Its stated differentiation is a 360-degree advisory model combining financial expertise with technical understanding, delivered by a ~90-person multidisciplinary team of financial analysts, credit specialists, funding programme experts, energy efficiency experts, and engineers.

The firm operates across 8 German locations (Stuttgart HQ plus Berlin, Düsseldorf, Frankfurt, Hamburg, Munich, and Nuremberg), enabling regional proximity to clients across all major German economic centres. Service delivery is consulting-led rather than product-software-based; the underlying technology stack comprises Salesforce CRM (EU-Frankfurt hosted) and the Fundingport platform for financing mediation and partner matching. Revenue is generated through professional services fees with performance-based compensation components tied to the success of arranged financing or secured subsidies; pricing is quote-based and tailored to individual client engagements and is not publicly disclosed.

REM CAPITAL's documented engagements span transactions from EUR 500K to EUR 600M across more than 10 industries, including automotive (modular EV platform, EUR 1.6M investment with EUR 295K tax allowance), IT/cyber (EUR 19.5M investment with EUR 4M research allowance), energy (EUR 40M Power-to-Liquid project), food (EUR 600M syndicated ESG financing), healthcare (EUR 400M hospital tender), and real estate (multiple EUR 25M+ property loans). The firm holds German broker registrations under §34c, §34f, and §34i GewO, and is governed by a Management Board comprising Jan Bewarder (CEO, since 2019) and Oliver Scheil (CFO/COO, since October 2022), with Stephan Gawarecki as Chair of the Supervisory Board.

Broad incumbents

• Roland Berger: German-headquartered strategy consulting firm with strong corporate finance and restructuring practice. Comparable to REM CAPITAL on industrial and real estate financing advisory, though broader in scope and more focused on strategic rather than subsidy-driven mandates.

Others

• Europäische Investitionsbank (EIB) advisory partners: EIB and affiliated intermediated lenders are counterparts rather than direct competitors, but the consulting ecosystem around EU institutional financing (e.g., EIF, EIB advisory mandates) competes for the same client projects that REM CAPITAL intermediates.
