Turning Challenges into Opportunities

At the newly launched Real Asset Finance & Debt Summit on 3 April 2025, the industry came together to discuss key issues surrounding access to capital, regulation, and ESG. Organised by BF.direkt AG and RUECKERCONSULT, and chaired by Professor Dr Steffen Sebastian (IREBS), the conference placed a particular emphasis on alternative financing and infrastructure solutions.

In an interview, our Managing Director Bernhard Visker highlighted the growing importance of loan extensions and strong, trust-based banking relationships – especially in times of uncertainty and increasing complexity: “Early dialogue with financing partners is crucial – as are robust ESG strategies...”. The summit thus remains a key industry gathering for exchanging ideas and solutions in the real asset financing sector. You can find the full interview with Bernhard Visker on the left.
