Corporate Mission Statement
of HIH.
We are HIH.
As a corporate group, we successfully bring institutional investors together with real estate and alternative investments. We take a strategic and forward-looking approach in order to act sustainably and responsibly.
We cope with challenges as a team. We make an effort to keep evolving and to never stop moving.
Our diverse strengths and skills are decisive for the success of our clients. Nothing motivates us like sharing in our joint success.
Strategic
Focus
We concentrate on services and investment solutions involving real estate.
Our ambition is to cover all aspects relevant to value creation in our business lines with in-house resources.
We are convinced that excellence is impossible without specialisation.
That is why we focus on regions and asset classes in which we remain permanently and systematically active.
CustomerOrientation
We aim for fair long-term relationships with our clients and business partners. Our collaboration with them is defined by mutual respect and appreciation.
Customer satisfaction is the touchstone of the success of our company and is our most important quality benchmark.
Growth
We see ourselves as a mid-market company that emphasises entrepreneurial continuity and keeps growing under its own steam. The purpose of growing is not to maximise short-term profits but to achieve the strategic long-term objectives of the company.
Innovation &
Development
We want to be one of the most innovative and most imaginative enterprises
in our industry.
We measure innovations in regard to their ability to boost the long-term success of a given investment and of the company itself. Our innovation efforts aim for the development of time-tested and new products, the optimisation of in-house processes and technological progress.
Group
Philosophy
The HIH Group consists of complementary companies and divisions that collaborate closely to contribute to the joint success and competence of the Group as a whole. All units are expected to sell their services and products to third-party customers, too, and thus must live up to the rules of market competition.
Staff
Motivation
We seek to motivate by putting our faith in our employees, encourage self-reliance, recognising and promoting performance and creativity because the long-term success of a business with satisfied customers thrives on the above-average commitment of its workforce.
Entrepreneurial Spirit & Risk Tolerance
Long-term success requires continuous corporate adjustments and optimisation.
We are prepared to seek fresh business opportunities, to weigh their risks and, assuming lucrative rewards, to accept them.
The basis for taking this approach is the risk-bearing capacity of the company, meaning we won’t accept entrepreneurial risks that could threaten our company.
Sustainability
As a manager of long-term investments, our decisions are forward-looking and based on a responsible interaction with the environment and with society.
We actively contribute to the implementation of the Paris Climate Accord by using the opportunities available within the scope of our actions to help cut down on carbon dioxide emissions.
Collaboration within the Group
Respectful interaction with each other, transparent decision-making and an open in-house dialogue on errors and improvements are key components of a constructive and rewarding collaboration.
Our employees are expected to think as individuals and to act as a collective.
Profitability
Earnings ratios out of context and without taking account of the economic parameters are not a helpful tool in corporate governance. Depending on the operational risks and the necessary investment of capital, our business ventures should be profitable in the long term.
