Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Lorange Network truly independent?

Yes. The Lorange Network is owned by its founder and Chairman, Prof. Dr. Peter Lorange, and is 100% independent of all banks, advisors and financial institutions. The network is run as a family business, for other family businesses owners, entrepreneurs and larger private investors. Chairmen and CEOs are also welcome. When investment experts from financial institutions are given the possibility to post their reflections on the Insight-feed, these postings will be clearly marked as such, in order to avoid any and all misunderstanding. Transparency, directness and congeniality are mantras for the network. Members can suggest co-investment deals but the Lorange Network does not make any recommendations nor tries to influence these proposals.

How do I recommend the Lorange Network to my colleagues and peers?
