What dossaro is

dossaro is a research service and publication focused on European private companies. Its articles examine ownership, financing structures, transactions and company finances using public registers, filed accounts, shareholder lists and other primary records. The editorial aim is to add verifiable context that is often missing from funding announcements and deal coverage.

Publisher and editorial responsibility

dossaro is published and operated by Hagen Hoferichter, acting as an individual provider under the trade name dossaro. Hagen founded the project, writes its research articles and is the person named as responsible for the website and documentation content. The legally required provider details are available in the imprint.

How the research is produced

Research begins with dated primary records where they are publicly available. Public announcements and reputable reporting establish the claim and chronology; filings are used to test, extend or qualify them. Ownership percentages, dilution, implied values and preference waterfalls are identified as calculations rather than filed facts. Assumptions, unavailable documents and unresolved inconsistencies are stated in the article.

The complete process is described in the editorial methodology. Verified factual errors and material post-publication changes are handled under Corrections and Updates.

Ownership and funding

The public legal notice identifies Hagen Hoferichter as the individual provider behind dossaro. No separate corporate publisher or owner is identified.

dossaro's repository and existing disclosure pages do not contain a verified public statement about external financing for the publication. dossaro therefore makes no broader claim here about outside funding or financial independence. The named responsibility for published website content rests with Hagen Hoferichter, and the methods used to produce and correct that content are disclosed on this site.
