Laura Boeck has joined the Dericon leadership team as Chief Operating Officer (COO) in addition to her role as Chief of Staff at FE fundinfo. Together, they will lead Dericon into its next chapter of growth, building on the company's strong market position as an FE fundinfo Company and strengthening the connection between asset managers and product distributors.

Herrmann and Boeck take on the leadership responsibilities previously held by former Managing  Directors Andreas Krause and Timon Virgens.

Frank Herrmann brings over 20 years of experience in private banking and the DACH financial services market, having served as Head of Private Banking at Dericon. Laura Boeck brings operational and strategic leadership experience from the FE fundinfo Group alongside over a decade of experience across private equity and the investment industry.

Their appointments mark the next chapter in Dericon's growth, building on the company's strong market position, deepening its ties to FE fundinfo and strengthening the connection between asset managers and product distributors.

Under the new leadership, Dericon's priorities will include deepening its market presence across Germany, broadening its client base beyond its already extensive network and accelerating development of the WMS platform to deliver even greater value for clients.

Frank Herrmann, Managing Director of Dericon, said:

"We are ready for the next step and will continue to expand our presence across Germany, alongside the launch of VV-Marktplatz. Our goal is to bring investment managers and savings banks together more efficiently, making access to professional wealth management solutions significantly easier. Together with our clients, we will continue to evolve our platform and develop new solutions that deliver real value in their day-to-day business. There is significant potential for Dericon and look forward to shaping the next phase of our growth." 

Laura Boeck, COO of Dericon, said:

"Dericon delivers significant value through its trusted client relationships and well-established platform, both of which are well recognised across the German market. Our focus is to build on these foundations. Dericon's customers expect excellence, and these standards will remain unchanged in this new chapter of the business. There is a significant opportunity to leverage FE fundinfo's global expertise that connects Distributors and Investment Managers, helping to accelerate how Dericon can best meet the evolving client requirements in today's landscape."
