Comprehensive capital markets law advice from our lawyers in München
Many years of experience for our München clients
Capital investments are meant to protect assets and, ideally, grow them – yet capital markets law quickly raises questions that go far beyond the everyday. Anyone investing in Munich, or wishing to protect existing assets, benefits from not making decisions alone but having risks and conditions reviewed early. Not every product delivers what prospectuses promise: missing returns or unexpected losses can affect private as well as institutional investors.
Our lawyers in Munich help you assess suitable forms of investment and identify critical points before a contract is even concluded. We are equally at your side when an investment later proves problematic. In that case, it is about preparing claims in a structured way, asserting claims for damages, and firmly pursuing your interests.
Our services are aimed at clients from Munich and the surrounding area who are looking for reliable support in capital markets law. This includes, in particular, analysing investment products as well as guidance on sensibly protecting assets. With a clear view of opportunities and risks, our lawyers help protect capital and consistently enforce justified claims.
Professional advice on investments
Advising private and institutional investors in München
Anyone in Munich wishing to build up or structure assets, or to reliably arrange business financing, needs clear decisions and a dependable eye for potential pitfalls. Stock markets, holdings, and other capital investments do not always develop predictably: price losses can occur unexpectedly, distributions sometimes fall short of expectations, and seemingly attractive models can later turn out to be risky. That is precisely why it is worthwhile identifying potential dangers early and taking timely steps to preserve value.
In Munich, the lawyers at MTR Legal help you consistently protect your financial interests – from sensible asset structuring to safeguarding business financing projects. A further focus is on avoiding losses arising from hard-to-follow processes and transparently assessing transactions. This makes it possible to develop an investment strategy that is convincing not only in the short term but also remains viable in the long run.
By incorporating tax and banking law questions, support emerges that takes your overall situation into account, rather than looking at individual matters in isolation. This gives clients in Munich tailored support that leaves room for individual goals and helps put financial projects on a stable foundation.
Safeguarding your interests in stock corporation law
Support for the management board, supervisory board and shareholders from München
Whether in the course of a company’s reorganisation or in ongoing board processes: our lawyers in Munich support shareholders, supervisory board members, and management board members on matters relating to stock corporation law. Even before an AG is launched in Munich, we ensure clear processes, examine suitable organisational models, and develop transparent responsibilities. At the same time, we show what risks can arise from decisions and how liability situations for executives can be properly assessed.
A further focus of our work in Munich is exercising shareholder rights. Where resolutions of the general meeting are being discussed, we support the review and assertion of possible objections – particularly in challenging resolutions. We are also a point of contact in Munich for matters relating to ad hoc disclosure under Section 15 of the German Securities Trading Act (WpHG): if price-relevant inside information is published late, incompletely, or incorrectly, investors or shareholders may consider claims for damages depending on the situation. In such cases, a structured approach is especially important, so that deadlines, requirements, and steps are properly coordinated.

Real estate funds — capital investment with risks
Legal advice is essential to minimize risks in real estate fund investments
In Munich, many investors rely on real estate because they see it as a solid form of investment. Practice shows, however, that even seemingly safe concepts do not automatically protect against losses. Holdings in real estate funds in particular can prove significantly riskier than prospectuses or glossy brochures suggest. In recent years, it has repeatedly become clear in Munich too that “tangible assets” are by no means a guarantee of stable returns.
When a real estate fund comes under pressure, this usually has several causes that can reinforce one another. Changed market conditions, sharply rising construction and financing costs, or a declining occupancy rate have a direct impact on liquidity. When income fails to materialise while costs for management, maintenance, or operations continue, planned distributions quickly come under threat. In the worst-case scenario, insolvency itself may even become a possibility. For investors from Munich, this means: returns can fail to materialise, distributions already paid out can be reclaimed, and in extreme cases a total loss of the invested money is also possible.
The lawyers at MTR Legal help those affected from Munich review their options and consider claims for damages. Attention is often focused on inaccurate or incomplete information as well as errors made during advice. The goal is to limit financial burdens for investors as far as possible and to work out concrete options for action.
Shipping funds — high-risk investment for investors
Rely on our experience in secure investments and contract drafting
What was long considered a reliable form of investment has, in the case of many holdings in ship funds, since revealed a different side. The prospect of ongoing distributions sounded convincing, but practice has repeatedly shown that such investments – similar to certain real estate funds – can come with significant fluctuations and hard-to-predict developments. If risks are presented too optimistically, or essential information is missing, this can have serious consequences for investors. In the worst case, the result is not just disappointment but the total loss of the money invested.
In Munich, lawyers carefully examine whether all necessary information was provided beforehand, completely and understandably. This particularly concerns whether disclosure duties were met and whether hints about possible disadvantages were clearly stated. If the review shows that decisive information was missing or misleading, we firmly pursue the enforcement of claims for damages – in the interests of the affected investors.
A further focus of our support in Munich concerns cases where distributions are later reclaimed. This can happen, for example, when a ship fund becomes insolvent and the insolvency administrator asserts claims. In such cases too, we support clients in a structured, targeted way to limit financial disadvantages and consistently assert justified claims.

Private Equity and Venture Capital
High profit opportunities and high risks – Comprehensive legal advice for München
Interest is growing in Munich in investment models in which investors pool capital to take targeted stakes in companies. Investors often set up their own private equity structures for this purpose and choose suitable company forms such as a GmbH, KG, or GbR. The shared goal: acquire stakes, actively monitor developments, and benefit after a few years from potential increases in value – often bundled through private equity funds.
As promising as this approach can seem, a clear view of the downsides is just as important. If additional debt capital is used, the requirements for sound agreements increase considerably. If a project falters, questions of liability quickly come to the forefront – as does the question of who is responsible for what and whether claims for compensation exist.
As soon as an investment gets out of hand, reliable legal support matters. In Munich, the lawyers at MTR Legal help investors assert their interests, pursue claims, and clarify open questions about responsibilities in a structured way.
Alongside classic private equity structures, venture capital also plays a central role: young companies receive financing while investors receive shares in return. Precisely because of the higher risk of default, close coordination with lawyers working in capital markets law is advisable in Munich, so that contracts, investment terms, and potential lines of conflict are properly regulated from the outset.
