He began his working career at Merrill Lynch, after studying business at Harvard. He also worked for Fidelity Investments and Julius Bär before founding the Value Management & Research AG (VMR). He later co-founded Absolute Capital Management Holdings, a hedge-fund company, which was listed on the Alternative Investment Market of the London Stock Exchange.

ACMH managed around three billion euros at the peak of this period. Homm again gained much media attention when he demanded that freenet AG be split up. In addition, he also took a stake in the TUI travel agency. In 2004 he invested in stock of the German soccer club Borussia Dortmund, through his Cayman Island based company. With a financial commitment of 20 million euros, he basically saved the club and also contributed to the overthrow of the club management by means of the conditions attached to the payment. In September 2007, Homm abruptly announced his resignation as the head of ''Absolute Capital Management'' and disappeared. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Florian Homm」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
