Officers
5
Three of the 5 officer records shown for Handelsblatt GmbH are current appointments, filed with Handelsregister (Commercial Register). Sebastian Christensen (appointed 2020-03-06) and Andrea Wasmuth (appointed 2020-08-28) both serve as Geschäftsführer (managing director); Christian Herp serves as Officer. The remaining 2 records shown (Gerrit Schumann and Oliver Voigt) are former appointments that have since been resigned.
The register reports 25 officers in total, including past appointments, though only the 5 most relevant records are shown here.
Management authority at Handelsblatt GmbH sits with these individuals, not with shareholders, who are covered separately and hold ownership rather than control.
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.
Group Structure
Handelsblatt GmbH sits 3 levels below its ultimate parent, Georg Dieter von Holtzbrink Familiengesellschaft GbR, registered in Germany. 1 subsidiary is recorded beneath it, across 1 jurisdiction. The full chain up to Georg Dieter von Holtzbrink Familiengesellschaft GbR is derived by walking shareholder filings across jurisdictions; no link in it is independently corroborated by Handelsblatt GmbH's own shareholder record. Each of these downward relationships is derived rather than filed: resolved by matching entities across the registry network, not stated directly in a single document.
Those 1 subsidiary spans Germany jurisdiction, 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.
