H&Z Advises IK on Lohoff Acquisition

H&Z supported IK with commercial and digital due diligence for the acquisition of Lohoff, a leading provider of software-enabled occupational pension administration solutions.

During the transaction process H&Z advised on the commercial due diligence (CDD), as well as on the digital due diligence (Digi.-DD) via its subsidiary H&Z.digital.

Founded in 1992 headquartered in Isernhagen, Germany, Lohoff is a full-service provider of occupational pension administration solutions, offering its clients and their employees a comprehensive, fully digitalised and software-enabled pension administration platform. The Company primarily focuses on managing complex occupational pension schemes for large corporations.

With IK’s support, Lohoff plans to strengthen its market position by expanding its product and software offerings across existing verticals and complementary service areas, while continuing to invest in operational scalability, systems enhancements and digital infrastructure.
