Kantar GmbH
Kantar GmbH is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in Germany under HRB 114447 München, and its current status with Handelsregister (Commercial Register) is active. The company was incorporated on 24 October 1996 and lists its registered address as München, Germany. 1 shareholder is on record for Kantar GmbH, and since every one of them is a company rather than an individual, this particular filing does not on its own establish an ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) — identifying one would mean tracing the ownership of each shareholding company in turn. This profile is sourced directly from Handelsregister (Commercial Register) and was last updated on 4 October 2026.

Shareholders
1
One shareholder is currently on record for Kantar GmbH, held on the Gesellschafterliste (shareholder list), filed under §40 of the GmbHG.
The largest of these is Kantar Holding GmbH, holding 100% — a majority holding.

Officers
5
The Geschäftsführer (managing director) of Kantar GmbH currently on record is Frank Emil Paule; five officers are currently on record for Kantar GmbH, filed with Handelsregister (Commercial Register).
The register reports 7 officers in total, including past appointments, though only the 5 most relevant records are shown here.
Management authority at Kantar 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
Kantar GmbH sits 14 levels below its ultimate parent, BC EUROPE V INTERMEDIATE, SCSp, registered in Luxembourg. 2 subsidiaries are recorded beneath it, across 3 jurisdictions. Immediately above Kantar GmbH is Kantar Holding GmbH, holding 100% as filed in Kantar GmbH's own shareholder record with Handelsregister (Commercial Register). BC EUROPE V INTERMEDIATE, SCSp sits further up the chain, a link derived by walking shareholder filings across jurisdictions rather than stated in a single document. 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 2 subsidiaries span Germany, United Kingdom, Slovakia 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. One of the 2 go a level deeper still, with its own further subsidiaries recorded beneath it — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
