KKR boss Scott Nuttall: "This year there was a lot of headwind for the private equity industry"

KKR, a private equity firm, has invested over €20 billion in Germany since 1999. The firm's head, Herr Nuttall, expressed optimism about investing in Germany, citing the government's reform efforts and willingness to collaborate with private investors. However, he noted that Germany's tendency to focus on past failures rather than its strengths could deter investment.

KKR has $140 billion in uninvested capital and sees significant potential for further investment in Germany, particularly in the mid-market and infrastructure sectors.
