The source filing doesn't specify representation authority — whether officers can act individually or must sign jointly to bind the company — so that detail isn't available here.

Data availability
Those 62 subsidiaries span Germany, Iran, Tunisia, Switzerland, Spain, Latvia, and 15 more jurisdictions, though this list should not be read as complete — subsidiaries only become visible here where shareholder data has actually been filed with a register, so holdings in jurisdictions without that filing simply won't appear. 16 of the 62 go a level deeper still, with their own further subsidiaries recorded beneath them — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
