Dr. Heinrich Kerstien

Together with my partner and colleague Dierk Rottmann, I co-head the debt advisory business in the German-speaking region. We advise medium-sized companies and groups on a variety of financing issues and accompany them throughout the transaction process. In addition, I am co-responsible for our private equity activities in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. We maintain very close, trusting and long-standing relationships with private equity firms. Before joining Clearwater, I was co-head of the European debt advisory business at Rothschild and held various senior positions in the leveraged finance team at Deutsche Bank in Frankfurt and London. I play drums, am a fan of contemporary art and fine dining and enjoy travelling - be it on the motorbike through Central America or to the Austrian mountains for cold training.

Dierk Rottmann

In my role as Co-Head of our Debt Advisory activities in the DACH region, together with my partner Dr. Heinrich Kerstien, I am responsible for advising medium-sized companies on all corporate finance issues. We are proud that leading international companies such as Trumpf, ZEISS, Symrise, Wieland, Infraserv, and enercity as well as many others have trusted us for many years and repeatedly rely on our experience and the added value of our advisory expertise. Furthermore, as International Head of Energy & Utilities, I have been advising companies from the energy industry on all M&A and financing issues for many years. In 2000, I co-founded the corporate finance consultancy @VISORY partners, which merged with Clearwater in early 2016. Previously I worked for Dresdner Kleinwort Wasserstein and Rothschild. I have an eye for design and detail and am an enthusiastic fan of turf sports - whether passively at Mainz05 or actively on the golf course.
