The Stiftung Finanzbildung (Financial Education Foundation) has nominated Alex Betz for the prestigious Deutscher BeteiligungsPreis in the category “Transformation.”
It recognizes “Betz’s long-standing and extraordinary commitment to the professionalization of the real asset world, as well as his pivotal role in the conception, structuring, and implementation of innovative corporate, investment, and financing models.”

“Transformation succeeds when expertise, integrity, and impact come together. Alexander Betz has set measurable standards in his work on multiple occasions – from structural quality and transparent investor communication to sustainable governance processes,“ says Edmund Pelikan, Managing Director of the Financial Education Foundation. ”His contribution in various positions as an entrepreneur and executive has strengthened confidence in real assets as a form of investment and financing and supports companies and investors alike in times of change.”

The “Transformation” category of the German Investment Award honors individuals and institutions that drive change in the real economy and on the capital markets through structured, transparent, and responsible financing and investment solutions. The Financial Education Foundation aims to provide impetus for sustainably increasing the quality and impact of investment models.

The German Investment Award will be presented at an AWARD dinner on October 9, 2025, in Landshut. Oliver Porr, Sachwert-Weiser, former head of the bsi association and owner of the LHI Leasing Group, will give the laudatory speech.
