Our highlights 2024

The past financial year was a varied one for Deutsche Vermögensberatung (DVAG). Many special moments show how the corporate culture is lived in the family-owned company and which values guide it.

An unbeatable team for entrepreneurship

Escaping from the everyday and moving away from the same old thought patterns. Events for the financial advisors provide inspiration, fresh ideas and concrete implementation approaches to put into practice. Dialogue has always been at the centre of this: after all, a comprehensive exchange of knowledge and experience leads to mutual support and success.

One example of this is the conference for young entrepreneurs from the Allfinanz subsidiary, which took place for the fifth time in April. Over 170 financial advisors met to exchange their recipes for success, lessons learned and best practices in team building. Exciting talks, lectures, workshops and discussions provided plenty of opportunities for further training.

Strong leadership for a future-oriented company

Last year, a special anniversary was celebrated: Andreas Pohl has been guiding Deutsche Vermögensberatung (DVAG) on its successful path as Chairman of the Management Board for 10 years.

Since taking over from his father in 2014, he has steered the company through numerous challenges – and with outstanding results. Under his leadership, the family business has established itself as a pioneer in the financial services sector.

The focus is always on being a reliable local partner for clients, with over 5,200 branches and offices nationwide. The financial advisors are, and will always be, the first point of contact for questions relating to financial protection, retirement provision and financial planning.

An unforgettable tournament

One of the highlights of last year was the VB Cup. A total of 100 regional teams from across Germany competed against each other to score as many goals as possible. On 13 July, the final tournament of the 2024 VB Cup took place in Marburg, where 13 teams gave it their all for the last time.

In addition to the inevitable ambition, the focus was on having fun and fostering an unbeatable sense of togetherness. A special guest made the day unforgettable: our long-standing partner Jürgen Klopp gave us an insight into his impressive career and talked about topics like coaching and team leadership.

Pioneering financial advice solutions from a single source

From practitioners for practitioners: 2024 brought numerous developments and innovations for financial advisors in the banking and investment sectors. Investment advisory and application processes were further developed, simplified and fully digitised. With the introduction of a new fund world, the financial coaches can advise their clients professionally, individually and holistically on financial and asset investments. The trend continues: clients showed a very high demand for discussions on topics relating to long-term financial investment and the various options. In particular, clients were very interested in our precious metal products, with the exclusive Geiger gold and silver savings plan and the Geiger gold pension being in high demand.

Close the pension gap with a 'Riester' state-subsidised private pension plan

Finally, the 'Riester' pension plan is back: thanks to the increase in the maximum interest rate to 1.0% p.a. as of 1 January 2025, the 'Riester' pension could be reintroduced in new business at the end of the year. Deutsche Vermögensberatung (DVAG) was thus one of the first companies in the market to relaunch it. Especially in current times, a secure financial future is more important than ever. The high-performance 'Riester' tariff offers clients a great opportunity to top up their pension with state support and reduce the pension gap. It is one of many instruments that help people maintain their standard of living in old age.

10 years of the FHDW campus in Marburg

Professional and personal training and continuing education have always been the basis for the success of Deutsche Vermögensberatung (DVAG). For over a decade, the FHDW campus (University of Applied Science for Economics) in Marburg has been a symbol of high-quality training and modern equipment. Since 2014, the company's own academy premises in Marburg have provided a modern, family-like environment right next to the company holding and the centre for financial advisory services. The high number of graduates from the dual bachelor's degree program in Business Administration, specialising in Financial Services Provision, speaks for itself.

Recognition and appreciation for special achievements

Every year, the best executives at the family-owned company receive very special recognition. Last year, over 2,200 guests of Deutsche Vermögensberatung (DVAG) and Allfinanz were invited to a special highlight – the “Winners' Party”. The new branch managers received personal recognition for their extraordinary commitment. This shows that individual performance is highlighted, and that the company values their commitment. At DVAG, no one is just a cog in the machine – here, we achieve success together, and the paths to get there are diverse and individual. This unity in diversity is what makes us unique.

I am proud to be part of DVAG. Here, we work in an environment that values and prioritizes performance. Every day brings new challenges and opportunities, and I look forward to continuing to achieve great things together with my team.
